If we were never told Coronavirus is going on would we even have noticed anything out of the ordinary is going on?
I don't think we would, if it was never mentioned in the news or by the government and we just carried on as usual we would never even know.
It's not like there's piles on bodies in the streets or people layed in bed coughing up a lung.
I STILL don't know a single person who has or had Corona and no one that I know knows anyone with it either
Not a Corona denier, I just think it's massively over blown and could have just been ignored and results would have been just the same

Personally I've known of 5 people to have covid.
3 of them were completely asymptomatic, didn't even have so much as a runny nose from it. 1 of them beat it in around ~1 week, she didn't think it was that awful. And one guy who ended up hospitalized from it but made a full recovery (he was in his 70's btw).
Who really knows.

I felt the same way until I got it. It's crap shoot. Like another poster mentioned, if you're asymptomatic it's nothing or if you just get a runny nose, it doesn't seem like a big deal. If you get a high fever and pneumonia like I did, fukin sucks. All perspective.

i don't think we woulda gave a single ****
death rates are pretty low... like in a province here. only like 20 cases or deaths or something. idk... but way more people die of cancer everyday. and there ain't **** to do about cancer so maybe we should focus on that instead. or brain injuryThere is only one Hell: the one we live in now.

Well, honestly....the flu isn’t really a big deal. Reflect back on the last ten years of your life and try to remember how much time you spent worrying about the flu.
As for Opie’s question, probably not. It would’ve just been considered a bad flu season that was particularly rough on the elderly. That’s about it. The economic and psychological self-induced impact along with the moments that never happened due to lockdowns will prove to be much worse than the actual virus itself.+positive crew+

It's the biggest global overreaction possibly ever
Also displays the astounding cognitive dissonance of the people that run the world

Yeah I’m sorry to say you probably would have noticed something was up.
Most likely would have attributed it to an extremely strong flu season if you weren’t told all the details, but you would have known something was off about this year.
I don’t think there’s any denying if we did no lockdown the rates would have hit more sharply.
That said would that have been a big deal? Probably not. I’m part of the group that thinks most of us will come in contact with it at some point.
The social distancing slowed it from happening all at once but that’s all it did.
Turns out medical intervention (the reason for slowing the spread) wasn’t even all that effective.
But you would have noticed. Everything would have been clustered in a higher volume all together that would have been impossible not to notice.
Look at it this way, let’s say you eat 2500 calories each day for a week normally.
Then you suddenly ate 17500 calories all on Monday and nothing the other 6 days. You wouldn’t notice that?
The calorie total is the same, but you’ve clustered it in a smaller time frame.
Of course you’d notice
Would there be a difference is a totally different question. Leaning toward no there wouldn’t have been a difference."One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Damn the way some of y'all think I believe America needs a situation where a pandemic is live and nobody knows or cares. No social distancing. . Let it spread and do what it's going to do. Then use it as historical learning

I know 2 that died and 1 that spent 37 days in the garage quarantined.
She said that she wouldn't wish this thing on her worst enemy.
Then i started thinking if there was another time where they burned the bodies without letting family say goodbye or even visit the dying family member. I can't think of any where the next of kin is denied those rights.There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and...It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!
