2009 Swine Flu Pandemic

Why does nobody even remember this event?

275,000 Americans were hospitalized during the first year, yet no one talked about "flattening the curve".

12,500 people died, yet no businesses were shut down.

It took over a year before a vaccine was released, yet nobody was forced to "self quarantine" or engage in "social distancing". There was very little panicking from the MSM expect maybe for the first month for ratings hype, then it was forgotten about until the vaccine finally became available and that made some headlines.

Dr. Fauci was the head of CDC then, but nobody knew who he was, and he wasn't on TV telling everyone we have to crash the American economy, cause a 2nd Great Depression, and abandon civil liberties bc reasons. But then, we had a different President in 2009 didn't we.

it has only been 3 months and already over 16,000 deaths. Do you math?

Swine flu had a death rate of 0,03%

R0 of swine flu was 1.48. Wuhan flu is estimated to be 3.

These are America only Stats.

Other countries are shit sources, Re: Spain counting every fucking death in the country as "coronavirus".

>Wuhan flu is estimated to be 3.
Chinese fucking lie bro.

Because the Chinese flu is much worse. If you act the same as with the swine flu, you can expect 6 million dead in the US alone.

>person with asthma dies of coronavirus
>actually thinking we should count the death as not from coronavirus

y is ur bran so tine-e

>cant even mentally process the pic he himself posted
the absolute state of deluded burgers

Wu flu is highly infectious, if countries didn't take measures it would spread really fast, hospitals would get overfilled. That's when even those who would recover in hospital with no problems die.

BANANAS OMNOMNOMNOMNONOMNOMNOM!!!

I thought it’s cause SARS-CoV2 is about 100 or maybe it’s a 1000 times more deadly. H1n1 has a .03 mortality rate an SARS-CoV2 is supposedly 3.5.
>inb4 user can’t do math
No shit but I know it’s significantly higher death rate along with permanent lung damage and it’s got a higher naught etc. stay safe out there.

Has this crisis exposed the Ameritard for what he is? Like a chicken without a head.

The Wuhan virus is ten times as deadly as the Swine Flu, is orders of magnitude more contagious, and ties up far more medical resources. And that's all assuming China's numbers are accurate and now massively downplayed, when all signs point to them being exactly that.

Wuflu is a bioweapon and the death is horrible

Actual retard.

16k is on par with the average yearly global flu deathrate of 49k. Don't make me invoke 1918. That was a real pandemic. 50 million dead. This Kung flu shot just shows how weak minded humans are. I'm starting to wonder if the virus makes everyone lose their bleeding minds somehow because this is outrageous fearmongering masquerading as the ptb trying to protect their cattle but it's clearly a power thing. And it makes me so mad

I mean, everybody remembers, it's just that a few thousand dead people does not really compares to a few million

>a few million
Call me when it gets to a few million. Till then we have the media projecting bullshit. Since when did we trust the media. Since yesterday when we got scared.

i remember it, i remember talking to people about it who had family member sthat got it but there was no point where the whole healthcaresystem was in danger of collapsing

They initially thought swine flu was as high as 5%
ideasanddata.wordpress.com/2020/03/20/how-deadly-is-the-corona-virus-covid-19/amp/?__twitter_impression=true

Millions died in China, literally observable from satellite readings of the atmosphere.

>The Wuhan virus is ten times as deadly as the Swine Flu,

Demonstrate using stats or shut the fuck up. This Kung flu is insignificant and I seriously resent having my personal liberty infringed due to the cowardice of a non critical thinking humanity enforcing safety over freedom

>literally observable from satellite readings of the atmosphere

Prove it faggot

as long as it kills party-line voters im fine with it honestly

>275,000 Americans were hospitalized during the first year, yet no one talked about "flattening the curve".

If the current exponential curve continues Covid19 will infect 300 million Americans by May, Swine Flu was a nothing burger

can someone please get a mike obama thread going? every pic i see i'm more and more convinced

sucks we already found treatment for it

I got fucking swine flu while I was in college.

Because it was during King Niggers reign and they like to keep up appearances for him.

are you a pig that can write?

They are just trying to scare boomers. Notice the phrases they push. Boomer remover, demonizing spring breakers. They did massively more degenerate shit in their day. Just shit coming full circle. I doubt that there even is a covid. Nothing burger gov psyop to take freedoms.

Maybe this one is more dangerous and contagious

It was meant to be, but I am beginning to guess it's failing.
Hence why they are doubling down with exaggerating hysteria on the MSM.

It's almost like the OP has an agenda he's pushing.

Nice try cutie.

I'm sorry, its 100 times more deadly than Swine Flu. Again, assuming China's numbers aren't bullshit. Which they are, pic related. Massive plume of SO2 from millions of cremations.

Swine flu was actually pretty big of an issue in the media. My uni banned parties to stop possible transmission

the swine flu is nothing compared to corona

Because swine flu and seasonal flu have something close to a 0.01% death rate. Those numbers are even recorded cases, they're estimates of deaths by complications because the cases are so mild and the virus' effect to small they are not reported. In the case of seasonal flu it's not even a virus, it's a whole group of viruses.

Coronavirus on the other hand has a 3.6% mortality rate and seems to be just as infectious.

thats the factories going back online you retard

This picture was confirmed fake. And tons of people are not diagnosed with Corona so it's much lower than 3. Sorry but your happening is cancelled

Fuck off back to /cvg/ you scared little faglet. Nothing is happening, standard yearly flu outbreak. Even though the uk is in lockdown it's business as usual for the non mentally retarded. Grow a pair cunt

>Mortality Rate: ~3%
Total crap. That implies that everyone with caronavirus has been accounted for in the number, when clearly people are not only avoiding tests to avoid quarantine, but are also not getting as sick as they should be according to the press.

Hysteria and demons playing with media are a bad mix.

Factories don't release SO2 like that

>kills everyone in Jew York and Commiefornia
Oh no ...please not that

>Be 80yrs old with lung cancer
>Be 30yrs old get hit by a bus
>Have a Coof
>Oy vey they died of a Coof! We need martial law lock downs right away!
Shillbergs begone.

They were exposed as the braindead pseudo-patriotic NPC's they are. They are still stuck in a two-party system, that means they cant register that far from black or white. Also they let these subhumans have weapons.

coal plants

Yeah, i suppose Italy being entirely out of hospital beds with an overrun medical system turning away patients who are over a certain age because resources are precious and low, is all just a result of their skewed statistics too, huh?

A guy that sucks on bratwurst is telling you it's bad.

Obama was competent and he didn't turn the government INTO A FUCKING REALITY TV SHOW. Obama had a team of scientists/experts on the ground he sent to other counties and was proactive about the whole fucking thing.

This is your own fault Trumpfags. This is "winning". Enjoy Grandma dying and a tanked economy. This is what incompetence fucking looks like.

It's almost witch hunt tier.

And what agenda would that be, supergenius? The agenda that welcomes people to return to rationality and a historical perspective with maybe a little critical thinking? Do you get off on mind killing terror? Have you always wanted to larp the stand by Steven king? Wtf is your agenda aside from cowering in fear like a maggot while pretending to be a player character?

2009?...just go back to 2018 user.
thousands people were dying per week, no one said anything.

Why do these outbreaks occur at economic downturns?
Why are they all out of china?
SARS and dotcom bubble
Swine flu and great recession
Corona and Trump bubble

Because it isn't the flu you stupid faggot death rate is extremely low and r naught is small as well compared to covid. Stop opposing affordable college this is why you are so stupid.

Because you dumb nigger the numbers are wrong.
CHINA HAS MILLIONS DEAD
Everyone knows it, they're playing along to keep people from full blown panic.
This thing has a 50-60% kill rate. Look at deaths/recovered.
This shit is huge and half of us are still going to die.

nobody ever says anything about the 30,000+ people who die from auto-accidents every year. Yes you have a greater chance of dying in a car crash every time you stepped in a car than catching corona-chan. This is the biggest psyop in the past century for the government to consolidate power, and as usual, most sheeple are falling for it hook, line and sinker.

Its funny to see a shitlib with Trump Derangement Syndrome this late in the game.

>Massive plume of SO2 from millions of cremations.
There you go talking out of your ass again user.

Meanwhile back in reality.

>Researchers are concerned that China’s official reports on the number of coronavirus infections have not been including people who have tested positive for the virus but who have no symptoms. They fear the practice is masking the epidemic’s true scale. Earlier this month, officials from Heilongjiang province in northeast China announced that 13 people who had tested positive for the virus with a lab test but who had no symptoms had been removed from the region’s list of confirmed cases. Officials said that they were following the commission’s guidelines for reporting infections, which state that such people should be classified as ‘positive cases’ rather than ‘confirmed cases’. Only confirmed cases are noted in the commission’s official daily reports.

China is massively under reporting the number of infected because they only count people with severe systems, which makes the Mortality rate appear much higher than it really is.

This again is why Italy's stats are a fucking problem. It is highly contagious, stays in the body for 30 days, can reinfect, but is largely benign, and people dying from other ordinary things have it in their system and get counted as "Coronavirus deaths".

Not to even mention at some stage you can only live by being assisted by machines.
Thats how you sound like. Learn to use your brains.

again, the spread didn't overwhelm the healthcare system

It has actually escalated since Trump's era started. A bunch of rural hospitals closed recently.

Yeah we know that now. for a while it was happening we did not know it wouldn't overwhelm the healthcare system. Hi d sight is 20/20 you liberal fucking kraut

Lmao /ptg/ are in panic mode

Remember when: Then Senator Obama unwittingly invested in two relatively obscure companies, whose backers happened to include generous contributors to his political action committees (2005)
Obama bought more than $50,000 worth of stock in two speculative companies in 2005
Both companies’ other major investors included some of Obama’s political donors
Obama invested money in AVI BioPharma which was starting to develop a drug to treat avian flu
Two weeks later, Obama led in a legislative push for more federal funding to battle the disease.
Obama initiated what he called “one of my top priorities since arriving in the Senate,” a push to increase federal financing to fight avian flu (2005)
LightSquared’s main lobbying firm is owned by Norman Brownstein, a major donor to Obama
George Soros is reportedly an investor in LightSquared
Obama declined to be interviewed about the stock deals during the 2008 campaign
“I thought about going to Warren Buffett, and I decided it would be embarrassing that I only had $100,000 to invest.”- Obama.

>OVID-19 Mortality Rate: ~3%

Are you just making this shit up? Is 16k 3% of 373k? Because the latter number is reported infections globally. Are you fucking retarded?

>doesnt remember h1n1 had similarly dire mortality rates predicted at the start
