Yes, indeed, the initial spikes were indeed among the youth as those folks made up a majority of the population who threw caution to the wind. They will die at a much reduced rate.

BUT, they make for excellent — if ignorant — spreaders of the virus, as they interact with an increasingly older population (family, colleagues, etc.).

The result? Simply that the lag in infections to deaths will be longer than it was in the NYC area, where old people were as equally unaware at the outset of the pandemic as young people of their vulnerability.

Any expert will tell you that you must keep an eye on hospitalizations. That’s the next leading indicator, and I believe they are increasing in most states.

And statistics show that the death rate among people who are younger is just like the flu. Just because there is more hospitalizations doesn’t mean there’s going to be more deaths

It was thought that it might be good. It appeared to have no effect in multiple studies and now one study say it might be good in certain circumstances. We don’t know everything, this is why it is important to try and go by the best information available and be adaptable and not “go with your gut”

This drug has been around for years as a safe drug to use.

There are a lot of drugs that have been around for years. We don’t just pour them all down sick people throats

this is the number one thing that media is pushing, that it's all Trump's fault. they have ramped it up more recently since protesting, likely because of the election coming up.

US intelligence literally said China concealed Coronavirus, but some don't even care, nothing trumps orange man bad.

either a decrease in the death rate is good news or bad news.

the Liberal media couldn't handle that Trump talked about hydroxychloroquine.

how many people died because CNN didn't think this was good.

Liberal media was more against hydroxychloroquine because of their hate for Trump.

Unbelievable -- Trump's chumps are *still* bitter about how Trump's touted drug didn't work out.

No context, no dates on the tweets, no links to the tweets or the supposed study. Not to mention those two tweets aren't even conflicting.

So tell me something about the drug, it effects, the studies, etc. and I’ll apologize. If you have nothing to say other than to rant about the liberal media move along
