Do you think that Disney world will reclose its gates due to the rising number of COVID cases in Florida and around the country?

I’m tired of the dishonest ramblings from mouthpieces of some of the most hideously dim- witted officials in US history being thrown out to battle science day after day...

Now THAT’S a rant.

Let’s let the medical researchers search for the truth and develop the best practices based on that, huh?

It worked for the entire 18th-20th Centuries...let’s give it another whirl?

Agreed...that’s a rant.

These are just positive tests. Not hospitalizations, not deaths. This is herd immunity developing. The more people who test positive the more the rate of death goes down. I don't understand why people think more cases are the end of the world. Look to the facts. Look to the decreasing death rates and stop believing what you hear on CNN.

Evidently, you didn't actually read all the words in the post I was quoting and in my post. The one I quoted was citing the number of positive cases. My comment was noting that the TOTAL number of tests was also a record high and that hopefully testing will continue at those levels without the numbers of positive tests, etc going up. Those are facts and reading accurately will help you greatly in understanding.

Not going to even address herd immunity, I think enough others have done that.

Don’t you think there’s something to be said about the people that get infected and survive?

I think there’s a wide array of Biological impact...as there is for modest viral, bacterial, fungal infections...

But I also don’t want this thing - or anything - spinning round and round if simple steps can contain this in perpetuity...because people are too spoiled and/or feel they are now experts based on their opinions that were never gonna change (I blame the internet for that)...

I’m tired...we’re all tired...this background noise that amounts all too:

“Aha! Wadn’t Nothing!” Or “yeah! Now I can go to my magical Disney place so I can be a little kid again!”

Needs to stop.

Go back to March and read the tens of thousands of back and forth, pedantic see saw “arguments” and you’ll see the root of that “side” of it...
The other side was fear of unknown and fear of incompetence (dead on...as it happened to pass) that’s now just pure frustration that’s it’s not in all the best interests to contain and move on with simple restrictions and a uniform effort .

Referencing your article, “The findings show that 95% of Spain's population remains susceptible to the virus. Herd immunity is achieved when enough of a population has become infected with a virus or bacteria -- or vaccinated against it -- to stop its circulation.”

Also, only 60,000 people have been tested in the study.

I don’t think the article is making the case you think it is.

The antibody rates of the 61,000 tested are incredibly low...not leading to ever achieving “herd immunity”

It’s a merry go round...you won’t get off until it’s contained or treatable...
...so start the containment which means no public displays of stupidity or unnecessary environments...for now

This is going to be around in some form or another going past 2020.

The treatable option will happen before it’s contained...because it was around before it was even considered.

And I don’t want to hear that CNN is more reputable than WSJ...this has several studies and cross references to consistent data:

www.wsj.com

Opinion | Herd Immunity May Be Closer Than You Think

Antibody tests could significantly underestimate the number of novel coronavirus infections.

I think it would be worse for other parks who are already open to close back again than Disney who is still close to remain close.

The main thing is the safety of the people . That is the bottom line. Once that becomes the focus or if it ever becomes the focus then maybe things will start moving in the right direction.

I wonder if this is the first time Myrtle Beach has been mentioned on this forum...probably considered an honor. Yes, I’m from SC.
