Before and After. (Lockdowns) somethings up

Italy numbers pre lockdown

when Italy lockdown started March 9th..... up until then had 9,172 cases and 463 deaths since the FIRST confirmed case on February 20th. That’s 19 days with an average of 24 deaths a day BEFORE lockdown. Now in the 22 days SINCE lockdown it’s over 12,000 deaths with an average of 545 deaths a day.....
So I’m supposed to believe that this became WORSE in almost the same amount of time AFTER the country went into complete full lockdown..... how does that make sense???

Same thing with US, it’s gotten worse SINCE lockdown. And they’ve only been counting here in Michigan for a couple of weeks.... but the first case here was months ago?

And also why is Washington state cases not “ballooning” it was the first epicenter and was one of the last dates to lockdown....

I question everything, which I hope you all should too; things just don’t add up and this narrative has more holes than a fly swatter.

I was wrong. It takes a week to 2 to kill you after symptoms start. Usually takes 2-14 days for symptoms to start though. The deaths you see now were people infected weeks ago. Plus it is an exponential infection rate, doubling every 2-4 days depending on population density and exposure risks.

It usually takes 4-6 weeks to kill you. The deaths you see now were people infected weeks ago.

4-6 weeks? Then this thing was active way before Xmas, remember those chine people on the news bleeding from their nose and mouth , then dropping in the street while walking? What the # happened to all that?

And if virus is so damaging , then why is Pence standing next to Trump during all of his press conferences... shouldn’t they be apart?

Hard to take this serious when our leaders are clowns and the media is a circus

So if it takes weeks to kill you; then why if the first case was in November not have more deaths previous to February 20th? .. that’s 6, 2-week cycles.... the media is saying that “since testing started” is when to start counting.... but the virus doesn’t depend on a “test” to infect and kill! It’s total nonsense

You have to factor in that testing is slowly becoming more widely available and faster, the further we get into this. There are likely far more cases than are being reported, due to restrictions on testing and availability.

You also have to factor in that infection rates are going multiply faster with more infections. The rate increases over time as more people are infected.

There is also community spread. The fact that people are not all adhering to social distancing guidelines. Etc.

IT SPREAD FOR MONTHS with NO guidelines in place..... so why aren’t the hospitals over ran two months ago??? Or even now ! 🤦🏼‍♂️

People refuse to use critical thinking.

Great point. Maybe the distancing went into effect after it was too late but there was no way of knowing that the virus had been spread bc of that two week window for symptoms to appear?

I'm personally highly skeptical that it would take two weeks to not feel well except in the rarest of cases. 2-4 days is pretty typical of every respiratory and flu illness, virus and bacteria I've ever heard of. It's just another super virus.

Ebola is far more deadly but stays relatively localized, it must not be as infectious. Covid-19 is super infectious but only a few out of 100 people die? All ages factored.

That is because the world leaders are showing the media and the public 10% of what's happening.
If we all had 100% picture then they wouldnt be holding all the cards and would lose control of the situation.
It's a poker game and we are being played the biggest bluff since 911.

Wrong indeed. In two more weeks you're going to be saying two more weeks...

If you are really scared just stay home. What do you have to gain by claiming every two weeks that everyone has two weeks to live? At some point just cut your losses and re evaluate. Or not. 2 weeks it is.
