The statistics about mainly elderly having severe complications and dying from covid-2019 is mostly true but really dangerous. It gives a false sense of safety. Here in NYC there are several cases of patients under 20 on ventilators in the ICU. Plus just because a young person gets relatively mild symptoms, that doesn't mean it's ok to contract it. Please take the measures seriously and practice social distancing! And to the kids in in Florida partying on the beach screaming into the news camera "f*** corona"...would you still said this at your grandparents funeral? Seriously people need to stop being so ignorant and educate themselves scientifically a bit. As a researcher I am really sad about how clueless people are, and I can talk here all day, but if nobody trusts us what's the point? Do not believe in all kinds of fake news and conspiracies, read official sources like the CDC website!
This is actually affecting younger people ass well. From people ages 25-40 about 35-40% are hospitalized meaning they are stuck to a machine, and many of them could have permanent lough damage. So the low mortality rate tricks people into thinking it's not as bad
I wasn't there fortunately, but we had a lady come into our place of work informing one of the staff members that she had been infected with the virus. She kept herself at a distance and wore gloves, but she still should've stayed home. When she left they immediately sanitized the area and the owner called her to tell her that a friend should pick up her dog while urging her to stay in isolation. She got highly offended, told them that she took every precaution (except for staying home), and said she had a PhD and 40 years of experience in the clinical field. Even when he linked the CDC page telling those infected to stay isolated, she got offended because "how dare he try to educate her." Bitch, a lot of scientists and medical professionals who probably have the same years of experience or more are telling people to stay home. Usually I'd listen to people with some credibility, but if a whole bunch of professionals are saying one thing, I think most people are going to be inclined to listen to them and not you. Bitch, stay home. On top of that the same lady came in earlier that week and didn't use the same precautions. Giving benefit of the doubt maybe the lady didn't know prior (but wouldn't you be showing some symptoms or feel like you're sick?), but one of our workers had to take the weekend off to get tested.
The hospital my mother works in had a man with symptoms lie to both the pre-triage and triage nurses that he hadn't been travelling and that he was fine, come to find after he saw the doctor that, shocker, he and his wife had just gotten back from abroad a couple days ago. That's happened before, right, but this fucking grown man's grown ass medical professional wife *went back to work* right after travelling. She worked in that same hospital. Never told anyone shit. We're so fucked.
@@Vincisomething Very glad, people need a big fucking wakeup call and soon. This thing is putting a lot of lives at risk and people are acting like it's no big deal because *they're* healthy and the people who aren't aren't people at all I guess.
To answer your question about Bourbon Street: it’s been shut down. They’re doing to-go at some restaurants but the Mayor doesn’t even want us ordering food and waiting to get it at restaurants all around the city. We’re supposed to order it ahead and pick it up for now. You’ll see a person here and there but you can actually drive down it at night and normally they can only do that at the crack of dawn to clean the streets. I know these are pre recorded but just in case you wanted to know.
Haven’t watched the whole vid but Please everybody during this time, if you have a fever, do not take any anti inflammatory drugs. Your body’s fever is a defense mechanism. There for a reason.
Hi David, just wanted to let you know your description section on your podcasts all have the same description since David Choi’s was your guest. Your links all go to David Choi instead of David So, FYI! Just listened to your podcast with Geo, thank you both for sharing your experiences and wisdoms.
Working for Verizon the reason they're ignoring you is because they don't know what to do. They're not capable of giving you such credit it's all corporate and are told if customers complain about owning money they're told to repeat the same dialogue. They don't get bonus for due credit only if they sold phones.
Yes he can it's his podcast? What do you want it to be called? It originated in Wuhan, China it can be called a Wuhan Virus or China Virus. Stop being PC.
@@cisco245 That's not the actual name of the virus though. All it does is create division and further stigmatizes anything associated with China. Lots of people criticized Trump for calling it the "Chinese Virus" while there have been an increasing number of racist incidents against Asian Americans. Being that he is Asian, I expected David to be aware of this and use better judgement.
@@ceeIoc and Corona is not the name as well. Official designation of the virus is COVID-19, but no one's really going to call it that name. And why not call it the Wuhan virus? There's a lot of viruses that's been called based on their origins. Ebola? I don't see any Africans protesting it, why calling it Wuhan or Chinese Virus any different? Spanish flu? Heard any Spaniards complaining? Stop being a miserable PC snowflake.
can anyone link or lmk where he had the conversation previously on this podcast about using the r-word that he references? I disagree w it but I want to hear his reasoning
I swear that every time I go into any store I have the urge to cough. I hold that shit back so hard but then I start choking which makes it look worse. Crazy stuff in the world right now.
I haven't got to it yet (since it was suploaded just 5 minutes ago), but I'm in the asexual spectrum lol. Also, this other podcast I watched talked about the Vanessa thing saying "you're just mad corona is more popping than you". Also, that was on her instagram story, she didn't type that statement lol. I was just watching a video from Dr. Mike saying surgical masks don't do much for protection lol- or at least there's still room for particles to travel into your face as opposed to the tight fitting N95 masks. And it was my birthday yesterday.
Think David doesn't get it with the waiter thing... it works eveywhere in the world with a normal wage and no tip. The people even pay the same the price of the food just covers the tip fully.
Neither is okay. But Spanish people are white so they probably wouldn't have random people coming up to all white people and accuse them of spreading the virus. Mad Cow disease started in the U.S. and there wasn't racist backlash toward American tourists at the time but many countries did stop importing American beef.
Maybe we can break the cycle and call it something else. Now that the Spanish flu name is down history, you can’t change that. The government called it that so it would put blame on the Spanish folks. There was a reason why they are calling it COVID 19 not the Chinese virus. It’ll cause discrimination and hate crime.
Arun Saini Agreed. I guess there are ppl who hear the name of an illness and attack that race rather than take it as “oh it originated in that area”. I just would never think that way so to me it’s just a name. But I can see all sides
My grandma is what he describing his grandmother is not . Love my grandma ,she does thing where she makes Christmas cookies for all her sisters and her grandchildren ,Every year .
One of my moms friends got it she is the same age as my mom so she is like 33. She had to take a month off and now she is fine just take precaution so we don't spread it more. And the people being racist towards Asians because of this I hate them on god.
so let me get this straight, his mom is 40, oldest brother is 30 which means his mom was pregnant at 10, unless I have trouble with my hearing that doesn't make any sense.
It's unfair to mention vanessa Hudgens in the title but not mention Rudy Gobert, especially since she was self isolating and already helped vulnerable people by donating to Feeding America (a charity) even prior the situation caused by the reckless words she said on some videos later (meaning: she clearly was taking the virus seriously since she was self isolating and she wasn't helping those in need only [after ] messing up like others tend to do). Meanwhile Rudy Gobert was senselessly downplaying the virus, deliberately trying to spread it, and only felt like donating after he tested positive for the virus.
@@Un1234l Since I explained it on the actual video I am going to shorten it here. She was basically saying that everyone shouldnt be panicing as much as they are because even if you don't get it your going to die anyways. You know, because every human will die eventually.
soo many people trynna flame David in the comments, smh. I thought we were fans of comedy and banter, people deal with these times with jokes. David perpetuating racism toward Chinese people? bruh, tf outta here with your virtue signalling bs
HONESTLY that moment where you were such an open-minded friend and didn't try to box your friend into something they're not made me 🥺 because then you started to try to understand them more, instead of forcing some preconceived notion. thats why we need representation of all people on the lgbtq+ spectrum!!!
also your discussion of raising min wage is literally what ive been trying to put into words. investing in quality workers, INSTEAD OF just hiring anybody that needs a job and then firing the bad ones, then keeping the bad ones because you don't want to have to keep hiring every two weeks. when you have EFFICIENT workers, the entire quality of the restaurant goes up. the latter is just from my personal experience as a server.
Joshua Nishitani it means they bought subscribers (followers) to appear like a popular channel. It's a common tactic but usually a channel will add a few thousand at a time. David So went straight to a million which is hillarious
Joshua Nishitani sure man. Now go look how many subs Bobby Lee has for Tiger Belly or any other popular podcast. Then tell me if that number makes sense. Do you know how much money he'd be making if those were real subs. I'm new to the channel but not new to the game. Keep doing you though kiddo
I'm Me haha that’s not how youtube works mate, you get paid for views not subs. Also most of these videos don’t have good cpm or aren’t even monetised at all. So they rely on sponsors. David has been on RU-vid for 10 years, although he’s new to podcasting he’s not new to RU-vid. Don’t act like you know what’s going on
I would have enjoyed this video much more if the medical supplies like masks and gloves weren't used as a prop, since hospitals and legitimate health workers are in dire need of these due to the ignorant people who are hoarding them or using it for their own selfish need with no benefits to anyone in return.
