What Pandemic? Texas NASCAR Race To Allow Fans At This Weekend's Event

The same Texas that is now the epicenter for new covid cases,lmao.

# of cases mean NOTHING because 99.8% recover easily.

Moreover, getting infected is what you WANT TO DO. You do not want to avoid it. Getting it allows you to build an immunity that will lessen the severity of the mutation that the virus will do. Those of you who are avoiding COVID will be at far greater risk with the mutated virus, but you're moronic Democrats probably, so if you die, good riddance.

LMAO These are the same people yelling “All Lives Matter” when their actions say “No Lives Matter” willing you risk it all and everyone else for a store visit, haircut, bbq, party, or event with no care in the world for people around them and the vulnerable members of families these people go home to

Disgusting group of people, sub human really as they lack humanity and basic consideration of others...pathetic

Trump has embarrassed America and has the entire world laughing at our lack of leadership and piss poor response.

Somebody get that big orange pussy out of the White House too much of a coward to reveal is financial record...what a joke...TOTAL FRAUD

I've been wondering what kind of moron would throw a COVID party.

Now I know.

I'm sure no one around here is surprised it's @Darringer.

You should really divide up your postings from your three profiles.

20 percent of Covid-19 infections result in hospitalizations. So, no, 99 percent of are completely harmless is BS. Many of those infected have health issues for months afterward. Sweden tried herd immunity and if failed, bigly.
The fatality is hoovering around 1 percent, but higher than that in Florida. I agree that the pandemic is politicized, but republicans are killing their base. I prefer to believe in science and experts.

Some data. In our state which was a hot site in April, the current cumulative ratio of 8340 deaths to 112130 total confirmed cases is 7.4%. We just finished Stage 2 (little allowed inside and always masked) in early July with a steady trend of 15 deaths/day to 185 new cases/day which is still 7.5%. This with masks and social distancing actively followed by the vast majority of people. Therefore the death rate for those who contract the disease is much higher than .5%. As the young man in Texas just found out, going to a Covid party isn't a good idea. His dying words. "I thought it was a hoax. I made a mistake."

Just to give you-all some facts, in Canada we had 221 new cases announced on Sunday. I think the USA had 60,000 new cases.

Ignore the White House. Listen to doctors and scientists and your surgeon general who is encouraging you to take action. Where a mask if you go out to any indoor space. Stay home as much as you can. Don't go to a bar or a restaurant or night club or mass participation event. Wash your hands. Be safe. Keep your kids safe. Keep your country safe.

The USA can overcome COVID-19 but only if you all pull together.

COVID is a political pandemic, but it's not deadly.

You forgot to put "facts" in quotes.

@MD You can tell the 130,000 dead American's relatives that they just went for a drive and are not really dead. The current WH is completely incompetent to the extreme and should really just let the experts handle things.

Typical Alt-Left bullshit reasoning that produces a factoid but gives no context.

Obama had a "pandemic" during his administration and didn't acknowledge it until 200K people died.

It's pretty hard to compare numbers. Canada has a population of 39 Million people, Texas (where we are based) has 30 million alone.

Texas has about 275,000 cases for an infection rate of about .92%
Canada has about 108,000 cases for an infection rate of .27%

It does show the locking everyone down does stop the spread for sure, but for how long? Texas never really locked down. Right now the risk is higher than before and less of the Canadian population has been exposed.

HOWEVER

Texas deaths are 3340 are about .01% of the population
Canada deaths are 8790 are about .02% of the population

So Canada has a significantly higher fatality rate if infected.

If you want to get really goofy:
Texas has tested over 97,000 people per million
Canada 86,000 per million

honestly that is pretty close percentage wise.

One may argue the higher death rate in Canada could be environment, average age or even quality of health care, either way Texas let the spread occur and saved more lives while Canada locked down and couldn't save as many lives.

The point is to look at all of the numbers and not settle on just one.

@Agent009 - The comparison of Texas and Canada is closer as the population figures are not far off. But my point stands. We are at the backside of the curve and should soon have no new COVID-19 cases. Both nations got into this mess at the same time. We decided to do something about it, the USA has spent 6 months in denial and is only now starting to take it seriously. It's all about mindset and the acceptance of science.

And we have to assume that Canada, an overcompensatory fascist-socialist government is reporting facts accurately. Yeah right.

Covid will disappear 11-4-20.

Not sure we are at the backside of anything yet. Polio started in the late 40's and stayed with us to the late 70's.

At any rate you weigh your risk level and make decisions based off of that.

I do think the US could have done better in general but they depended heavily on the WHO for guidance and the WHO trusted China. So a lot was blind leading blind being led by lies.

This isn't even remotely like polio.

1,200 medical professionals in Seattle signed a letter proclaiming that it was just fine for thousands of people to ignore social distancing guidelines to protest and riot. The news media approved as well, going from non-stop advocacy for social distancing to complete silence the second the protests and riots began. To this day, there's a refusal by many to acknowledge the role the riots played in spreading the contagion. Surely, if social distancing guidelines can be ignored to riot, they can be ignored to for any other activity.

You couldn't visit your dying parents in a nursing home, attend their funeral, go to church, go to work or go to school but it was ok to gather and protest. Typical liberal thinking..."the end justifies the means."

Black Lives Matter is responsible for the uptick.

There are studies indicating a direct correlation to the unrest and higherinfections.

Nah they said it came from Karen’s inability to wear mask, and Florida’s beach parties along with Texas BBQs LOL

These races are such a nooseance

Right, ignorant pieces of shit aren’t they, sub human, aren’t worth the waste they piss

@Car4life1 It's Black Lives Matter leadership that has referred to white people as "subhuman".

Nope it’s smart people referring to dumb, ignorant, selfish people as subhuman, you made it about race, I simply make it about choices, get out of your feelings

@Car4life1 And here you are spouting the same racism and bigotry. Did you refer to the thousands of rioters who completely violated in place social distancing guidelines as "ignorant pieces of shit" or "subhuman" as well? Of course not. Bigots aren't known for their moral or intellectual consistency.

Nope because the protestors had a cause after a man was wrongfully murdered in the street

These dumbasses just want to see cars go in a fucking circle

And stop your whining bitch boy, a hit dog will holler....

Poor Felicia, his death has been ruled not to be a murder in the latest analysis.

Yup that corrupt officer had it coming to him, deserved to be taken off of this earth and his police force doesn’t even miss him, totally agree! Glad that gentleman made an example out of that corrupt cop by taking him out, serves as a warning to all bad cops!

Let em go. It is darwinism at work. BTW it looks like a number of studies in Europe are showing there is no "herd immunity". Apparently your immunity may only lasts a short time.

You won't die from it.

Oh I didn’t realize used Hyundai dealers also had doctoral degrees and Med school under there belt to make such assessments, maybe I’ll visit one when I’m not feeling well...nah their designs make me Nauseous

As always you're a vestigial prick trying to overcompensate. You obviously don't follow science, much less "the science". You're just flat out unhinged.
