[QUOTE="Chris, post: 425840, member: 1"] Exactly, they are padding the numbers. Because if they don't pad the numbers, it will be apparent that all this precaution was for nothing, and that our elected officials completely destroyed the economy, caused another recession, and fucked a lot of people over. It's a flu, albeit slightly more deadly than the normal flu. If you look up the number of people who die every year from the regular flu, the numbers are high. Even seemingly healthy people die from the flu every year (and this too), the issue is that the media chooses to focus on the ONE healthy person who dies as oppose to all the other ones who didn't. Hell, you can die walking down the street every day, but that doesn't stop people. The panic that the media has caused is absolutely disgusting. The fact that people are running scared from this behooves me. I'm not a fan of Maher, but this is on point: [MEDIA=youtube]UcvIQJ-QurQ:3[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
