One for everything

 

I would like to think that something as heartbreaking as this would result in a re-evaluation of gun control and a push towards supporting said control laws in wisconsin, but I really don't see that happening..

I just spent the last hour comforting my wife who, while crying, told me she couldn't stop imagining something like this happening where I work and how she wouldn't be able to handle it if something were to happen to me.

All of this inactivity leaves me so damn irate.

 

I work in a medical building gonna start raiding the supply closet and selling purell on the streets

 

jesus

 

gut check. How confident are we that Bernie can even beat Trump? Because my hope is wavering and it's not even Super Tuesday yet

 

im very scared

 

theres gotta be a strain out there bypassing the vaccine, right? i coworker of mine's son got it and he got the shot months ago

 

how much worse is coronavirus than regular flu, which i just had and dealt with last week

 

Don't just hope. Do. Change the polls.

 

There are so many different strains of the flu. The vaccine is usually less than 50% effective. It’s certainly not uncommon to still get it even if you got the vaccine.

 

I’m much less confident right now considering the data and studies that came out over the last week, plus that awful debate. It seems like from what we know right now, it does seem like a more moderate candidate is more likely to beat Trump than a more left wing one is.

But, a lot can change. Bernie is gonna have to be more personable and get more people to like him. He’s gonna have to make a good pick for VP

 

More confident than anyone else could. But at this point... maybe a bit better than 50/50?

 

DRAG HIM

 

From what I’ve been able read, it seems like the worst cases feel like a bad cold and then after a week or so there’s sudden bad respiratory issues that end up killing the person. The reason why it’s causing so much worry is there doesn’t seem to be able discernible pattern to how or why people suddenly take a turn for the worst when 80% of people are just getting normal cold symptoms

 

Thanks for the answers. If he gets the nom, I feel like the VP pick will make or break it with a lot of potential voters
