This post is from another site from someone (from day 1) who believes the flu is a much worse threat than than covid 19:

Recall:

This is a virus that they say spreads easily
Is 10 times more deadly than the flu
Has no vaccine
There is no herd immunity
Spreads by droplets
Spreads by breathing on someone
Spreads by talking to someone
Stays on surfaces for days
and yet...

OF COURSE it's the social distancing that's working! You know, the one that 8 states are not participating in and the virus knows not to go there. The social distancing that still has people in parks and on the beach where apparently viruses don't go. The social distancing that still has people crowding into grocery stores and gas stations and minimarts and touching everything in sight. Everyone knows that viruses don't spread in grocery stores. The same social distancing that they claimed would not stop the deaths, just buy healthcare workers more time. The social distancing that apparently stops a virus from spreading like a virus.

Right on schedule, the numbers change again and the excuse is predictable.
The lower end of the prediction is 49,000, which is flu territory.

For a deadly virus, it sure doesn't virus very well.

You were pretty quiet when the predictions were 100K to 240K deaths, with mitigation. And a bunch of the states where they don't have statewide closures - there are hardly any people - and many of them are still doing social distancing, they just don't have statewide closures.
