What "opinion" in her post is there to care or not care about according to you?Merkin Baller said:DewieCox said:
She posted it. That’s what it has to do with her as an individual. Why should anyone care that she may or may not have contracted COVID? I mean, thanks for the PSA.Spiritual_Chaos said:
What has that to do with Greta as an individual, saying she and her dad has been down and around in Europe where the virus had spread, and both of them has gotten symptoms that makes her think that "it’s extremely likely that I’ve had it, given the combined symptoms and circumstances."DewieCox said:Spiritual_Chaos said:
I don't know what you are talking about...DewieCox said:Her “diagnosis”.When it was being used to push the right’s agenda, it was immediately dismissed. This should be just as swiftly dismissed.
What has this to do with any political agenda?
And again, why should what she says here be "swiftly dismissed" ? Why?Several pages back it was discussed that the virus had already made the rounds through various communities. This notion was met with both eye rolls from the left and as an opportunity to downplay the effects of the virus by the right.
... like in any way?
Should also be noted also, that she took the time and used her platform to write this to her 10 million followers to help out:THIS IS THE BOTTOM LINE: I almost didn’t feel ill. My last cold was much worse than this! Had it not been for someone else having the virus simultainously I might not even have suspected anything. Then I would just have thought I was feeling unusually tired with a bit of a cough.And this it what makes it so much more dangerous. Many (especially young people) might not notice any symptoms at all, or very mild symptoms. Then they don’t know they have the virus and can pass it on to people in risk groups.We who don’t belong to a risk group have an enormous responsibility, our actions can be the difference between life and death for many others.Please keep that in mind, follow the advice from experts and your local authorities and #StayAtHome to slow the spread of the virus. And remember to always take care of each other and help those in need.
But let's waste a post on the Pearl Jam message board pointing out that you have to be skeptical of her. Posting that is very important. For some people. For some reason.
And what agenda is there here to swiftly dismiss?The same people dismissing the claims from a week ago of people having itshould be dismissing this. Not that hard to understand.
Yeah, I care about Greta's opinion about as much as I care about any other teenager's opinion.I'm going to listen to experts about COVID 19.
If I cared about Greta Thunberg's opinion on ANYTHING, I would follow her on social media. But she's 17 years old, so I don't.

And what agenda is there here to swiftly dismiss?The same people dismissing the claims from a week ago of people having itshould be dismissing this. Not that hard to understand.
People cared when Tom Hanks contracted it.
I would bet people would care if Eddie contracts it.
Nothing to even dismiss here, and you have yet to explain why something has to be dismissed -- in a way that makes sense.
But still you felt the need to post about people having to "swiftly dismisss" her saying she believes she has gotten corona.
And that need of yours to post just that, is what is interesting here.
2. I didn’t care to hear that Tom Hanks contracted it and wouldn’t care to hear if Ed contracted it, but I can understand there are concerned fans that appreciate the update. Definitely don’t need to hear from everybody that might have had COVID and don’t understand the purpose of doing so except “look at me”

She's 17, and should be allowed to be a 17 year old.I don't care if she got Corona, or Tom Hanks or any other celebrity.
Not everyone bows at the altar of Greta.Get over it.

This had been a great thread where we can come together and share our experiences and concerns about the COVID-19 virus. Now, all of the sudden, it's becoming infected with it's own virus- arguments over a few simple comments about celebrities with COVID-19. If Eddie Vedder gets COVID-19 will we see the same nasty comments? Jesus H, people, isn't this a hard enough time without some of you coming here just to be nasty? Fuck that."It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0

It begins:At the press conference, Deputy State Epidemiologist Anders Wallensten said that the Stockholm region had surprised positively.- The expected increase in the Stockholm area, which we have counted on, has not yet occurred. Although it is a burden on health care, it has not been the large increase in the number of cases in Stockholm, he said.But that was before the Stockholm region delivered its new figures for March 24.Another 143 people have been found to have the disease covid-19, which means that a total of 959 people have been found infected in the Stockholm region. This is the largest increase so far in the number of cases detected from one day to another.- It has been a bump today. It is after the weekend and that could have lead to more cases, for different reasons. We will see where we are heading for the rest of the week, says state epidemiologist Anders Tegnell.He continues:- I talked to Stockholm today, and they are starting to get pressured in health care"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0

I thought you were referring to the distancing issue, if I came off cold. I feel for anybody truly affected by it and that goes for those that have the virus, or worked to the bone or worrying about bills and hell, people that claim to have had it without a test, because theyve clearly suffered through one illness or another.josevolution said:

If Eddie Vedder gets COVID-19 will we see the same nasty comments? Jesus H, people, isn't this a hard enough time without some of you coming here just to be nasty? Fuck that.0 -

For me, the post appeared with zero context - it was just her picture with no text which is why I asked why she was being brought up.

With that being said, I’m done talking about Greta.
I will be done with anyone who continues posting bullshit that creates dissension and arguing here. No one needs that right now.So be done with me, if that's what you think I'm doing.
You would be wrong, btw, but mute me all the same, I couldn't care less.

Moving on, what's this I hear about Trump wanting everyone to go back to work in "a couple of weeks"? Is this for real? Nationwide or do states get to choose? I don't understand the point of isolating for only a short time. How does that "flatten the curve"?

Last day, 743 people died from covid-19 in Italy. It reports Norwegian TV2.On Sunday and Monday a slight drop in the number of dead was reported, leading to hopes that the peak was reached in Italy. Tuesday's figure on the number of dead in a day was the next highest since the crisis began, AFP reports.A total of 6,820 people have now died from the corona virus in the country, which is the most vulnerable in Europe.
I can't even fathom these numbers."Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0 -

He is clueless, Brian. I can easily see him making decisions like this that go against everything the medical experts are suggesting. But hey, who knows better than the Donald, right?
