How is that disturbing? More people die a day in NYC than from this. Also, less yankees to move to the South.

Pat Rogers, when he lived in NYC, had a family member die of heat stroke... NYC was taking days to come get bodies. This was during the heat wave they had.

NYC is definitely the biggest bunch of pussy whiners and drama queens in this Country. A flaming homosexual male in SF has tougher skin.

@joglee

I've never been a flubro or a doomer.

I've said from the get go that this is a very serious virus, not to be taken lightly, but that some of the reporting is overblown along with some of the government reaction.

I've never believed that it will kill millions in this country, but it sure as hell ain't the flu.  We could lose 100k, but I'm hopeful that all that has been done will make that number lower.  Maybe half.  Had nothing been done I think we could have lost several hundred thousand pretty easy.

They do it all the time.  

NYC has a lot of indigent/homeless, and they routinely pass away often.  There are actual scheduled runs going from the borough's hospitals and coroners offices straight to potters field.

As @ricko1 pointed out...

Funerals and gatherings aren’t halted because of the flu. If someone wants to put someone in their plot with a viewing and all of that and they can’t because of the conditions, there might be some backlog while families figure things out.

The border controls and the hunting down of people from other states is effectively balkanizing the country.  Do you think the .gov is going to release that power when the craziness subsides?   I don't have faith in it.

On any given month, in the absence of C19,
NYC has about 5000 people die.

In the past month, about 1000 people have died with C19 in NYC.

The vast majority of them already with the diseases and issues that make them part of the 5000.

Edit-


So, the real question is, what are their total numbers of death for the month.
And what were their total numbers of deaths, in say, March of last year.

If the population is about the same.
If not, deaths per 1000 of the population.

Comparative numbers for hot areas and the general US would be very interesting. That would be the gauge of how bad this REALLY is.

I'm not panicking.  I don't think this is the end of the world.  It's not.

But, it's not the flu.  Go look at Italy.  Their population is 60.48 million.  The USA is 327.2 million.  Take that ratio.  It's 5.41.

Yesterday Italy reported 12,248 deaths.  Scaled to the US population that would be like 67,235 dying here.  The vast majority of that in about a month.  That ain't the flu.

Why is GD so fucking retarded that it gets divided into two idiot camps - One side "It's the end of the world!" and the other side "It's the flu bro".  Both equally stupid.

Add in the fact that if you're not openly advocating for the doomercult, you're somehow a flubro.

At this point facts dont matter to either side.  Either you think it's the end of the world or its just another bug going around.  I'll tell you what really draws my ire lately are our posters (in conservative rural America) thinking NYC is in a mad max cannabilistic survival story just because they eat the manufactured drama up like their dessert.

I work in a shitty hospital in a shitty borough in a shitty city, and guess what?  Nothing really has changed besides the pure insanity.

The sun is still shining, the woods are getting greener, people will still suck and this whole thing seems like a doomsday cult based on a grain of truth.

Fuck doomers and flubros both, but goddamn you doomers are an insufferable bunch.

The latest data I found after a quick search showed that in 2010, there were 52,575 deaths in NYC. So roughly 4,300 pet month if you want to average it out.

The number of deaths due to this virus is not taxing their system. Maybe in the way they are handling the bodies due to the no funeral mandate, but not the amount.

Your own numbers prove otherwise.  But I do applaud you getting actual numbers instead of running purely off feels like so many in GD.

4,300 deaths on average per month in NYC.  To date, NYC has had 1,714 deaths due to covid-19 in about a month.  That's a 40% increase over normal.  That is significant and enough to tax their normal systems.

Again, not the apocalypse.  Not the end of the world.  But significant.  Not the flu bro.

What I don't get is why they are not digging mass graves and burying them like during the Spanish Flu Pandemic if it's all that bad.

Hell, there are mass graves all across the country and around the world containing those flu victims. Many were forgotten if a later permanent memorial was not erected and some containing 100s of bodies are discovered every now and again. There was one found in Schuylkill Haven, PA back in 2015.

Came to post this. NYC loses up to 300 a year in homeless alone. When the morgue in the hospital gets full, they have to remove them to the next caretakers, which would likely be further cold storage to find next of kin, then funeral services including crematories.

Hence the casual attitude, same as we do not worrying over the 23,000 dead this season alone from the "normal" flu, which so far is 10X the pandemic. But, business as usual, amirite?

Doomers being doomers in the news to create more panic to help Pelosi get more money for the Kennedy Center is a good thing. They fired the orchestra and gave the DNC $5 million, your tax dollars at work. But, nobody gives a shit about the dead or the corruption, just keep propping up the narrative #orangemanbad.
