Take a humour break. I tossed a wink into that post. It's got to the point where "POSSIBLY" almost means don't even bother reading but some still think it's gospel. We've got dealers all over the country catching hell from their C8 buyers who read 'POSSIBLY" on a forum or a facefool page and immediately call their dealer and get pissed off at them because they can't confirm all the BS that get's floated out there. Just sayin...

wow nice 10K let you play with 7 for a bit hahahahah .... my guy who owns the dealer group said GM would like to see 5K down to say yup that's a serious person there for an allocation for that dealership.... I was lucky 4sure knowing the owner, I put down 2500 then after another 1500 on it was #1 on their list but had to wait till the convertible was available so 2 coupes got picked up early from his dealership I think it was in Mid Dec for those lucky owners.

No reported US cases in Kentucky? The speed of reported cases I would've expected this to be confirmed somewhere by now.

This is unbelievable, there is 3000 deaths due to the Corona and on average about half a million die each year from the common flu.

Hi BVSam


C-19 is just starting and we have anti-viral medications for severe Influenza cases.

I think the thing here is that with Influenza there is a vaccine that can be taken prior to Flu Season to minimize symptoms, and yes people still die, but as in when we had SARS outbreak due to actions taken by Governments at different levels and Emergency Service Workers the Pandemics #s were reduced SARS was a 1 in 10 mortality rate, the high end of Influenza mortality, and because of precautions it was not as bad as it could have become. (SARS still no cure) Covid-19 is currently at about 2% rate.

Canada has about 500-1500 Influenza deaths a year the US has had from like 12,000 to 61,000 over the last 10 and this is a virus we have medications for in severe cases in North America. For Covid-19 there is no cure when things get bad. So being cautious with hand washing and the actions being taken buy different levels of Government Health Agencies at all levels will help.

Cheers,

Kevin

Unfortunately the flu has mutated into several totally different strains... Each year they take a wild guess at what to vacinate for. Type A is usually the most common flu strain. At least in Canada, but the vacine is still hit and miss. And the flu has never kicked the hell out of the stock market so people are definitely concerned over this virus.
I agree. So far Corvid 19 is considerably lower in death percentage but it's very early in it's existence. Lets see what a full year brings and if this virus mutates (which is certainly to be expected at some point), all bets might be off.
But at the end of the day, we could all get hit by a bus so live day to day and drive your Vette every chance you can. :Cheers2:

I thought C19's mortality rate (percent) is significantly higher than the flu so far something like 2% vs 0.2% for the flu? Way too early to tell which way this goes for sure. Either way nothing any of us should worry about realistically.

Stock market I feel was due for a major correction. One thing is for absolute certain we're about to get a whole lot of supply shortages and missed targets for companies due to the virus shutdown. That's what this correction is all about. Most major fabs over there are still at 5%-15% capacity. They could mobilize quickly after the all clear but I still see a good 6 months of production shortfalls assuming the virus clears up by spring. Almost everything is made or sourced in China in the supply chain except for my dodgy egg breakfast this morning 😲


P.S. I'm driving this thread off topic.. Mods help me......
