If it did, it would be unprecedented......oh wait: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/second-wave-spanish-flu-wwi/ Quote What's True More people died during the 1918 flu pandemic than in all of WWI, with the majority of deaths occurring during the deadly second wave of the influenza outbreak. In general, places that disregarded social distancing rules saw more influenza cases. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is anyone's guess with the Senate. Canada is also paying their citizens $2000 a month. To unemployed people 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's worrying is the suggestion that immunity to this thing might not happen for people who have already had it. Which is **** I've had this ****. I want my immunity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, some people here might not see their $1200 checks until August. Cool. Cool, cool, cool. I wonder how much easier it is to come up with a system to serve a population of 37 million people compared to one that serves a population of 330 million people?

Right but paying $2000 to people that lose their job is a little different than paying everyone under a certain income don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The IRS site couldn’t even handle 4m people trying to update their direct deposit info. But sure, it’s population size that is the only issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
