F*** it, Trump dies ON election day.
COVID is barely deadlier than the flu, and you except the most powerful man with top-notch doctors at his service to die from it?

How many people do you think would have died from COVID by now if we weren't taking major public safety precautions, including shutting down businesses and encouraging everyone to stay indoors?  And if we weren't using emergency measures to provision PPE and ICUs to maximize the survival rate of those who get it?  If we weren't doing contact tracing and testing to try to find people who have it before they reach critical condition?

COVID has a mortality rate of 1-4%.  Let's be generous and say 1%.  COVID spreads like wildfire.  If we didn't take any precautions, everyone would get it, and 3 million people would die.

That's either 50x or 300x more deadly than the flu, depending on which flu death estimate you use.

Misinformation aside, do you think Trump catching the flu would not be a serious health concern for him?

The lockdowns are BS, all you have to do is quarantine the vulnerable with conditions for a period, than let the rest develop herd immunity, places like schools are not vulnerable to infections, even the WHO admits that children rarely infects adults, it's actually vise-versa.

We don't KNOW who HAS it.

EVERYONE is vulnerable.

You don't have conditions UNTIL A WEEK LATER.

HOW IS IT OCTOBER AND YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS.

Oh wait, I shouldn't have asked that since doing so implies you have the ability to "feel" anything for anybody else. My bad.

The flu kills ~0.1% of people who become infected, compared to COVID-19 killing ~0.6% of people who become infected. I know math is probably hard for you, though, so let me simplify it: a 0.6% mortality rate is more lethal than a 0.1% mortality rate.

Stop spreading misinformation, you diseased maniac.

Not to mention half the people who survive the flu don't have permanent lung, heart, and neurological damage as is happening with covid.

Here's a post I found from a forum that debunks this;

Quote
The estimated case death rate takes into account how many were estimated to have it. This number comes from random sampling the population. Since ~80% get COVID-19 with NO symptoms, and ~15% have mild symptoms, ~95% never get tested who have it. Multiply the positives by 80 or more to get the estimated cases, so the estimated death rate is a tiny fraction closer to the common cold 0.01%.

COVID-19 is thus the COMMON COLD. It has a similar death rate and the same sympyoms.

200,000 people are already dead you absolute imbecile.  Even if the entire U.S. population had it, the mortality rate from deaths so far alone would be 7 times higher than you're claiming.

If you really believe COVID isn't deadly, why not prove it?  Why not put your money where your mouth is?  Go get yourself infected with COVID.  Go hang out with your president up in his ICU ward at Walter Reed.  Then you can come back to us and tell us how you're perfectly fine.  Trust me, we'll all be very chastened.

In fact, I'll go a step further.  If you get yourself infected with COVID and survive, I will change my name to "SirWoodbury was right, COVID is a hoax" and donate $1,000 to the Trump campaign.  Please, please, please, please, please, please go infect yourself.

I don't have to. I have a friend that had COVID, he had no symptoms, he didn't even realize that he had it until he got tested (because his work requires him too).

So they're basing this on pure speculation of what they THINK are the number of people not getting tested, with zero evidence. Thank you for clarifying that what you're saying is not based on any credible source.

If we have a living Trump by election day, I'm increasingly confident he loses. But I'm increasingly wondering as well if we have Pence instead.

Do we see the Never Trumpers come home?
Is there a reduced turnout among the cult since he's gone, or do they still vote because he's on the ballot?
Do the further left voters stay home because it's Trump the person rather than the administration?
Do voters tune and figure "Trumps gone, mission accomplished" or will this still implicate the entire administration for them?

There's so many possible outcomes that could make a big difference in both directions, or it could similarly have zero impact

There will definitely be reduced turnout among the GOP. Many Republicans are now essentially Trump or Bust.

Also Pence is disliked by pretty much everyone outside of the evangelical community, and was in charge of the White House COVID task force early one. He'll be implicated in their incompetence.

UK has better healthcare access and, like Japan, has it controlled to the point hospitals aren't overwhelmed. Not to mention most Americans have underlying conditions--try again.

Somebody in the US in the same condition has a far lower likelihood of somebody in equal condition there.

Yeah, even states with faithless-elector laws generally allow the parties to substitute a new ticket in the event of candidate death/incapacitation.
