Dude we are here for you but damn... holding a grudge against someone for calling someone else a punk? Seriously. I’m terribly sorry about what happened to your parents & can’t imagine what you’re going through but don’t conflate that with this.
We need to declare war.

I do happen to be in a relationship with someone on the front lines of this bs & I pray everyday she goes into work. Still, the stuff you said leaves me feeling a different type of way because I would go out of my way to save anyone & everyone possible even my own worst enemies from this COVID or any other tragedy. I just don’t understand it.
He didn't wish death on him you POS, he wished that he caught the same thing that he may have. That is not a death sentence for someone in the prime of his life. Aston thinks he and his wife have the virus, and he expressed no sympathy, just ill feelings for his pov. I don't think either of them took the high road.
Would you wish some other health issue like, idk, say CANCER on your worst enemy? Or that their parents die early in a terrible accident?
Never said I wish you died. Just that you have to suffer through the same
, and maybe even have the same kind of financial troubles that others are having to deal with.
I am in no way saying that I agree with the majority of Aston's opinion's on this, but Aston is on an island here. There is not much support for a liberal on this board. We have three liberals post on a regular basis.(Watu doesn't support a whole lot, no offense intended Watu, just not his style of posting.)
So when he is attacked from all sides, gets small sympathy for his plight,(only Lawpoke expressed strong sympathy) one poster ups the anty on the ferocity of the attacks,(not going to mention names) and eventually another poster starts calling him a punk for his views, it's obvious where this will lead. You can't back a man into a corner, and then expect him to act like a gentleman. When I read that reaction from Aston, I was not surprised, I expected it.

Shut up libtard, tiblard. U fat, and soft! Here puddy tat.

Thanks man. I know I'm not everyone's favorite on this board for a variety of reasons. But I do like talking to everyone, even if we don't agree, even if sometimes I get called irrational, etc... I don't really want harm to come to anyone. I don't particularly care if anyone likes me, but I don't like reducing the discourse to name calling.
I apologize for being spiteful... but being called a punk when your concerned for the physical and financial existence of yourself and your family is a bit enraging.
I think it's worth mentioning (in relation to the effects of the outbreak on access), my mom who is 70+ and has had breast cancer, a mastectomy, etc... and has been for a month or two suffering pains near her shoulder / armpit had her appointment with a physician canceled due to the virus. She's worried about possibility of it being related to the cancer, but she's not able to see anyone.
My dad who is 79 is in a similar situation. Had prostate cancer. His PSA number is now over 4. Needs an MRI (or whatever they do) and has been advised against going in at this time.
Really sorry to hear that man. Just from my own mother's health issues I know that appointments like that are often scheduled weeks/months ahead of time and it's extremely frustrating when the doctors themselves cancel. I've only gone off on her internist once, but every time that kind of thing happens I just want to scream at them "Don't you understand that people can't afford for you to cancel on them?" Every day matters and it's easy to see why you would be on edge.
I am feeling a bit better. The inhaler I got (which are starting to be in short supply) helped a lot. My wife; however, is still in pretty rough shape. My problem is that I never got a fever (that I could tell) nor was I tested, so I have no idea if I had the virus or something completely different. I'm certainly hoping that it WAS the virus and not something else, because I'm not sure my lungs could take much more of a hit in such a short period of time.
Maybe some good news New case numbers in Oklahoma as well as hospitalizations appear to have leveled out over the past 3 to 4 days. Probably need to see a few more days data before announcing a trend but thus far it looks are it we may have leveled the curve.
I would still be weary of that # of confirmed cases due to the limited testing throughout the country. But that it a good sign.
Agree....but the number of hospitalizations is absolutely a reliable number which should have a direct correlation to the number of new cases.
I had to quarantine myself along with many others so I understand some of what you are feeling. This sucks and I do hope you recover fully as the majority of people who tested positive have. There have been many times throughout history where millions have died due to disease. We are fortunate to live in a time where we have the advanced medicine available in the United States.
Best of luck to you

I think it's funny that Cuomo is getting as much credit as he is. The NYC mayor was calling for shelter-in-place for several days before the governor finally acquiesced.
The places that we're seeing have the most success are the ones that take the most decisive action.
There's not a lot anyone can do about NYC being the most densely populated place in the US by far though.
Have you considered that maybe the support liberals (thought they) had in 2016 has been fading on the daily? Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Say stupid sh*t in public, get publicly embarrassed, shamed & ridiculed.
Read between the lines. What was the last thing that the Naval Captain of the USNS Comfort said in the press conference upon arrival? “We will never give up this ship.” Why would he say that? Why are they treating regular patients that are only confirmed to not have the Chinese Virus??
New York State clearly showed their hand in that they wanted “control” of the ship - it’s not going to happen.
I have a friend who lives 30km outside of Wuhan. Even he doesn’t know anyone diagnosed (much less hospitalized) with this virus. Once again, read between the lines. Something is happening. This is nothing more than another failed coup.
This is fake news.
On March 3, 2020 de Blasio was telling everyone to go about everything as usual & to not be scared etc etc. Here, I’ll provide proof: https://dailycaller.com/2020/03/25/cuomo-coronavirus-china-new-york/
Also, we are going to war with China. There is no way that after this settles the Chinese Communist Party or the Xi regime remain in power. There’s also no way Biden beats Trump, there’s no Cuomo coming to save the democrats in November (Cuomo couldn’t beat Trump either, but he’s the new “Bloomberg candidate.”). We’ll see what happens but it’s shocking that anyone would tout de Blasio’s response as if it’s been somehow better than Cuomo. Also, Cuomo doesn’t want to run because the oppo-research would expose tf out of him for being dirty & backed by the mob & pedophiles.
More proof we need to go to war with China & that this Chinese Virus is a bioweapon:

Are you aware how much more success the USA is having than the other western countries? Italy is over 140 cases per 100,000, Spain at 139.5 cases per 100,000 where would you imagine the USA is? We’re all the way down at ~33 per 100,000... I’d say (largely due to relatively early travel bans & the shutdown of “non-essential” businesses which somehow includes restaurants & bars but not liquor stores & in some cases gun stores) we are doing even better far better than all other western countries.
You had Nancy Pelosi on February 28th marching through Chinatown in San Francisco begging people to “come join us,” only to reverse course & blame the President for all deaths. Everything the Left does is defining hypocrisy on the daily. So go ahead, vote for these people who are currently upset that the President (whom they’ve always called a fascist) isn’t taking more authoritarian measures. See how it works out for you & your loved ones. Actually, doesn’t matter how you vote because due to demographics alone Trump will be the last conservative President (& he’s not even that conservative).
Another intelligent response from... someone who lacks intelligence. What a surprise.
I'm smart, but I lack intelligence. I guess that means I don't get a membership to the intelligentsia of the communist state of America, damn.
back. Im glad you are still alive and posting aston. I got worked up, obviously, over youre always bashing of americas health system. I completely disagree with you on just about everything, but glad you're better.
My wife nor i have ever been sick despite caring for covid positive patients without n95 masks (only during intubation/extubation). Sorry to disappoint you. In fact, a gentleman i helped in the er and she cared for over the past 3 weeks in the icu was extubated yesterday and left the hospital alive and fairly well. Glad that guy survived.
Lots of threads since I took a break. Fun reading through them.
