How long will it take The United States to rebound from the aftermath of The Lockdown associated with CoVid-19?

Undoing fear is what will take time. People are going to have it in their heads that large gatherings are unsafe for a long time I think. Even after a vaccine is developed I think people may still be scared.

people are wasting away DDM and we do have flu vaccines.

You see, the thing about viruses is that they mutate.

You see, the thing about viruses is that they mutate. Common cold =/= flu. Different virus groups, cold has 100s, flu has only several. Common cold is not a disease, it's a discounted bundle of symptoms. Many symptoms overlap with flu, but severity is much reduced. No cure and no vaccine for cold.


Where hes getting "the common cold and it kills millions each year" though, I have no flappin clue.

The WHO says we have 2 million children die each year from colds.

https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/18/11/12-0607_article

And I've posted other research that found the colds have a higher mortality rate than Flus - a secret killer because we think of it is "mild."



Yet, we do not shut down the world every flu and cold season despite the massive mountain of deaths.

Yet, we do not shut down the world every flu and cold season despite the massive mountain of deaths. The WHO does not say that. Where are you getting "the cold" kills millions? The cold is a group of mild symptoms indicative of a mild upper respiratory tract infection. That Vietnamese paper says "The World Health Organization estimates that ≈2 million children die each year from acute respiratory tract infection (ARI), and most live in developing countries" and it doesn't use the word "cold" once.

The WHO article on reducing childhood mortality that it links to also doesn't once use the word "cold" or even the word "rhinovirus" but instead talks about childhood susceptibility to "Pneumonia, or other acute respiratory infections" being the cause of death, "malnutrition" being the risk factor, and "antibiotics" being the treatment (as most childhood pneumonia is caused by bacterial infection).

The WHO article doesn't even use the figure "2 million", and in fact, never even pairs up the word "million" in or around a sentence speaking of ARIs. It doesn't even speak of "developing" countries, just refers to sub-Saharan Africa and South East Asia in general as the source of early childhood deaths--not just from ARIs but of all deaths, as that's what the article is about.

So where the Vietnamese paper got that wording for their abstract, I have no f*cking clue.


That paper, because I feel you didn't actually read it, is about an outbreak of ARI in a Vietnamese orphanage and the study done determined that human rhinovirus (HRV) was "the main pathogen detected in an outbreak of severe ARI in children living in an orphanage in Vietnam". Those children were infants, BTW, <6 months old.


If you've been conflating "rhinovirus" with "common cold", stop. HRV is the usual suspect of the common cold, but that's not its only handiwork. The common cold can--CAN-- lead to an ARI in the upper respiratory tract, especially in the very young and old and those with compromised immune systems especially if it involves the lungs. And of course it's going to be worse in developing countries. The paper and article talk about that, they do not talk of the common cold.

Lord Lucien
Too late to edit, but if you could post the links you mentioned to the other sources I'd supes appreciate it. My Google Fu is usually strong, but I'm turning up nothing that links the common cold (and only the common cold, not virus groups) to high death rates (or death rates at all, really). I wanna know what's true, so if there's some hella credible sources that have been dodging me, I'm all ears.

You've mistaken that these facts were debatable - they are not. They are not up for debate so there's no point in getting angry about the fact the colds cause over 2 million deaths in children each year. I stopped reading after you denied the face value facts.

If all it takes for you to post something more than smart assed sarcasm is to point out the fact the colds cause over 2 million deaths each year (guess what ARI's are almost 100% caused by?), then I've done a great job.

But, hey, knock yourself out arguing with doctors and epidemiologists:

"Dudes! You're totally not alllowed to correlate colds with URIs/ARIs because I don't like the fact that colds killed 2 million children each year!"

2 million kids, over 4 million people. I genuinely thought better of you.


Colds are not synonymous with ARIs. If a cold leads to an ARI, then it's a cause. Your own damn links say as much; They define an ARI as "Acute respiratory infections (ARIs), a disease group that includes pneumonia, influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)" one of which is influenza, which is not a goddamned cold.

I'm right onboard with your decrying overreaction over COVID compared to worse things like flu, but telling people shit like "the common cold kills millions" and not dumping on it the dozen or so asterisks with their footnotes needed to prevent that from being a loaded, spurious statement is f*cking repugnant, especially from someone who claims to care so dearly about the efficacy of healthcare.

It's okay. You majorly f*cked up. You thought you could play a game of denying that colds killed millions of people because you were ignorant.

Just try to do better next time.



And you're still trying to pretend you have a word game to play like some sort of lawyer that already last the case.

It's too late. Stop getting upset. It's beyond the point for you to get justifiably upset.


This right here is where you demonstrated you knew you were wrong:




lol!



Here's the problem with everything you're trying to do: so what if you want to play a word game? Label it whatever you like. What is the underlying point? The point is we have 4.5 million people die each year from ARIs that are most commonly caused by colds. And what are colds?

You lied before about the original article not mentioned colds even once.

lol again! haermm

It's about the rhinovirus.

What is the rhinovirus?

One of the causes of a collection of symptoms we call the cold:



https://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/cold-guide/common_cold_causes

And what did the article say of their research?



So let's get this straight: you pretended that an article from the CDC wasn't about the cold when it says right in the title "Rhinovirus" and then went on a tirade about collection of symptoms, which are caused by over 200 different kinds of viruses, not being colds.

You're very upset that colds kill so many people each year. Very very upset. Why? I don't know. You're trying your best to be dishonest even pretending the very links I provided do not inexorably show you to be clearly wrong. Not just clearly wrong, you're going out of your way to be wrong. You have to be extremely stupid or just obstinate to have taken this conversation as far as you have.




Look...even webmd lists all all the viruses that cause the cold and they are clearly killing lots of people. How stupid do you have to be deny this:

https://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/cold-guide/common_cold_causes


And the organization that put together their findings for all these deaths?

They list out the viruses:

Coronovirus - cold
Rhinovirus - cold
RSV - cold (big killer)

If you visit their site, they have article after article about colds and ARIs.

https://www.infectioncontroltoday.com/

Additionally, research found that rhinovirus appears to have a higher mortality rate compared to flus.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5343795/



So you either need to make a cause that we are grossly over-reacting to SARS-CoV-2 or we are grossly underreacting to colds.


If "colds" gets your panties in such a bunch that it causes you to deny science and medicine, replace it with ARIs: upper and lower. If you have to be so dense that you need to deny facts to make your point, you should reconsider your point before making it.

And before someone says it, there are multiple medical issues that could arise or are related to what we call "colds." Colds can result in fatal ARIs, as I have very clearly demonstrated.

I've been popping back in and out of here since this morning to see your reply, but you avoided it for the bulk of the day only to post 9 hours later trying to "score a win" in front of your internet friends with glibness and snideness.

I just can't believe you took this sudden turn for the arrogant with your vitriol and double-downing on poor interpretation of scientific terminology and literature. I haven't gone through a biotechnology education to not go out of my way to split hairs with the details--in science, the correct wording of them matters, and the wrong or poorly chosen use of words gets people killed and gets the uninitiated making bad decisions.


*sigh* So for a last summation, not that you'll care at this point.

Common cold: collection of symptoms caused by over 200 different types of viruses, rimarily human rhinovirus.
ARIs: acute (which the cold is not) illnesses of the respiratory tract such as pneumonia, influenza, etc.

Pneumonia is typically bacterial in origin, influenza is a separate virus group than the cold's. Rhinovirus (one of the causes of cold, but not all) can ALSO cause ARIs or cause a cold to progress to an ARI, which is much worse.

I know you like links to sources, so here:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3553670/

HRV sucks. It causes cold, but it can ALSO cause other bullshit that is so much worse.

"The common cold kills millions each year" is an incorrect and wrong statement. Full stop. This is the proper way to say, using correct medical terminology, what you first said:

Originally posted by dadudemon

That's it. Colds aren't the killers. They're the Charmanders to ARIs' Charizards. They still suck, but they won't refuse to be trained by you if you lack the badges from the expensive Western hospital.

You don't deserve a respectful reply and you've wasted far too much time on this and I won't waste anymore time on it.

It's obvious you know you f*cked up when you retardedly said "er mer gerd! no cold mentioned in articlez!" when the study is about how deadly rhinovirus is: a cold.

ARI Institute has article after article about colds and how deadly they are (causing ARIs, duh!) and has concluded that 4 million + people die from them each year. CDC says 2 million children. Almost all of them originating from colds. <- A position supported over and over again with you never once disputing that in any legimate way.

You do not deserve another reply. I've so thoroughly destroyed your ignorance in my reply that there's no wiggle room, no further debate. You can scream cry and beg all you won't: you're simply too stupid to be worth engaging in a discussion of anything serious. No, I am not kidding.

There are 3-4 people I've run across on KMC that fit that category. It's a rare group. You have to be really dumb and/or dishonest to be put into that group because I even give not so bright people some leeway and respectfully engage them. The most insulting thing I do to a person is write them off as too stupid to be worth talking to because I cannot think of a worse position to be in.

You don't deserve a respectful reply and you've wasted far too much time on this and I won't waste anymore time on it.

It's obvious you know you f*cked up when you retardedly said "er mer gerd! no cold mentioned in articlez!" when the study is about how deadly rhinovirus is: a cold.

ARI Institute has article after article about colds and how deadly they are (causing ARIs, duh!) and has concluded that 4 million + people die from them each year. CDC says 2 million children. Almost all of them originating from colds. <- A position supported over and over again with you never once disputing that in any legimate way.

You do not deserve another reply. I've so thoroughly destroyed your ignorance in my reply that there's no wiggle room, no further debate. You can scream cry and beg all you won't: you're simply too stupid to be worth engaging in a discussion of anything serious. No, I am not kidding.

There are 3-4 people I've run across on KMC that fit that category. It's a rare group. You have to be really dumb and/or dishonest to be put into that group because I even give not so bright people some leeway and respectfully engage them. The most insulting thing I do to a person is write them off as too stupid to be worth talking to because I cannot think of a worse position to be in.

So has America comeback yet?

Jesus probably looked similar to a stereotype Middle-Easterner. Darker skin, curly hair that would have been dark until it turned grey and/or white.

Then again, no one knows who Jesus' biological father was. Maybe his mother was impregnated by a foreigner instead of a Judea man from her town and that could have affected his looks. eg if his biological father was a Roman soldier maybe his skin was lighter, or trader from sub-Saharan Africa making him darker.
