Make no mistake about it, the decisions we have made to shut
down our normal life as we know it will have long lasting negative consequences
on everyone. As a matter of fact, even
those businesses that have been deemed “essential” will have to adjust to the
new normal. Those who currently have
jobs and are taking to the internet shaming others who are questioning the
plethora of misinformation that continues to flow will end up feeling the same
pain as the business owner who has had to shut their doors due to being
“non-essential”. It’s just a matter of
time the longer our government leaders make decision on false logic.
Today, more users/consumers are viewing the internet to get
the majority of their information. No
matter which side of the fence you are on in any issue; one will be able to
find information to support their position.
This is important for businesses now more than ever. They must have a digital media strategy that
includes a well-built website, optimized social media channels directing
viewers back to the website, daily post on the social media channels, videos
promoting their message, blogs written to highlight their products or services,
a positive online reputation and social media engagement from their customers
or fans. Having the right digital media
strategy will be vital for businesses to operate in our current climate and
will be a must to survive the aftermath of these grave decisions that have been
made.
Take for example the latest reports on how everyone who is
promoting the shutdown of our economic livelihood is pointing to Italy’s high
rate of death from the Coronavirus. This
group of medical professionals and politicians routinely leave out that Italy
has a relatively high proportion of older people, a different definition of
coronavirus-related deaths, and approach to testing strategies. The doctors noted that a report from the
World Health Organization-China Joint Mission on Coronavirus Disease 2019
Mortality on 2,114 of 55,924 coronavirus-related deaths in China reported a
death rate of 21.9% in people 80 years and older (compared with 20.2% in this
age-group in Italy). Italy also overestimated
COVID-19–related deaths because of the different way its officials define it,
classifying the death of anyone who tested positive for the disease as related
to the coronavirus, regardless of whether they had underlying illnesses that
could have independently led to death.
The sector of the population will share the message of the mortality
rate of the virus in Italy in order to scare the opposition, but will not
identify the actual reasoning behind why Italy is abnormal in all of the charts
and graphs that do not fit their narrative.
If this were not true, these same “leaders” would also show contrasting
points of views in places like Ivory Coast, Senegal, Dominican Republic,
Singapore, Peru, Argentina, Mexico, India, South Africa, Saudi Arabia,
Thailand, Philippines, Japan, Chile, Malaysia, Australia, Israel, Brazil,
Canada, South Korea and others.
Obviously, numbers
continue to change. The Epidemiologist
behind the highly-cited Coronavirus Model who stated there would be 2.2 million
deaths in the United States (that would be 6027 deaths a day) drastically
downgraded his projection to less than 50,000 people in the US (61,000 people
died from the flu during 2017-2018).
Nobody has contradicted that the coronavirus is a virus which is
serious. However, the numbers do not
support the rhetoric that is continuing to be spewed and affecting businesses.
When the loss of jobs
and no income begin to trickle into the medical community from shutting the
doors on the means to earn an income and wage only then will that sect of our
society understand the fiat consequences of only looking at this problem from a
physician’s point of view. Our police
force will also have this same thought when crime begins to increase and the
ability to receive funds from tax dollars that provides resources on combat
crime decreases. The saying goes “an
ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure” should resonate with everyone
today, but if you are not thinking about the long-term; it will eventually
enter your way of life. As with any
disease or illness there is always a case that doesn’t follow the norm. We must find a balanced approach to find a
solution that we all can find beneficial.
Everyone know based on trends throughout the world,
including Italy which arguments show is not the norm, that 80% of the infected
with the coronavirus have mild to no symptoms. Mild meaning there is no need to
go to the hospital for treatment. The
other 20% is the cause for concern. These are the individuals who will require
medical care to survive. In the history of the world there has never been any
illness that has affect 100% of the population in any given scenario. It
appears that is exactly what the masses have been scared into assuming in order
to achieve the magnitude of this virus. That is an unfair and biased approach.
At the end of all the shelter in place time lines, what
happens and how do we a society begin the process of moving the pendulum back
to “normal”? How do we find a balanced
approach to a solution that the fewest people are affected? Both physically and
financially? At the end of the day research is funded with money, and we need
money to continue to treat people. Sitting at home doing nothing for months
will not find answers to the problem.
The American People will remain divided on all of the issues
discussed. Today, social media has given
everyone a platform to share their opinion.
Whether you make a comment, post a picture/video, LIKE, Share, retweet
or put some type of emoji on a post you are sharing your opinion. Because we feel safe behind a keyboard or our
face buried in our phones; we feel empowered that others truly value what we
have to say. Google Reviews, Yelp and
Facebook have all made millions on this concept as the consumer will instantly
take to giving their Online Review.
