The comparison rests in population density which is quite a bit higher in cities like New York . ie. public transit systems, city dwelling in places like Times Square.

Why is the rate of CONVID-19 in Canada only 20-25% of the US ?
by RubaDub inany thoughts?
i would expect vancouver and toronto to be huge epicenters with the rate of international travel there.
with vancouver highly asian and toronto a mixture of everywhere, they are either just behind in the cycle or doing something that makes more sense than what is happening here.. rub a dub.

When this is over...
by joey jojo inwhat will the world be like once this pandemic is over?
the world has been through this before, in the form of the bubonic plague and it left changes to life still felt today, especially in regards to the economic system.
so many people dying meant a smaller working class that meant their skills and labour was suddenly more valuable which in turn raised wages.

There will likely be bargains in housing and vehicles for those who can still afford them.
Good point RT
Once everything gets going again that would be good advantageous time to buy high priced items like cars or homes, there will be incentives by retailers galore. $$$

This pandemic will not kill as many as in the past due to advanced medical treatments and enforced public social restrictions in place in most countries.
It will be eventually be contained and identified as such and governments will release those restrictions as confirmed cased eventually reside.
Countries economies will recover but slowly and there will be debt procured onto governments which is going to have to be repaid.
Dont expect total containment to happen soon, lets see where we are in a month from now .
Its not the end of the world folks , go for a walk every day and smile at people to let them know everything is going to be OK.

Lets face it most working political figures have no experience in dealing with a dangerous virus pandemic, some are doing better than others, nevertheless they are doing the best they can under these circumstances.
I think the problem with Trump is that he didn't think it would be a major problem to effect the US. ........... surprise

Covid 19 - expert says it's hype!
by The Fall Guy inlol!
having commented earlier on experts' differing views, here's a prominent german physician/politician - wolfgang wodarg - who made controvorsial statements that the coronavirus "pandemic" is not out of the ordinary and that italy's mortality rate (8,215 deaths from coronavirus so far) is no greater than it would normally be from the 'flu virus.
in 2017/18 approx 18,000 italians died due to the flu.. the wikipedia section - controversial theses in the 2020 covid 19 crisis - is worth examining.

Its not sensationalized hype, its a contagious serious illness that has the potential to kill, particularly to the elderly and people with other chronic health issues.
Think about what would happen to a given general population if there was no social restrictions in travel, close social interaction or socialization in public places such as in schools ???

Covid 19 is a chance to dump 1914
by hoser inas the jws regroup after being in isolation it would be an ideal time to say the last days started in 2014. the territory will be ripe with people whose lives have been turned upside down.

What you can see coming from the WTS/Jworg is that they are using Covid-19 as a indication of mankind living in the last days.
You just had to know the WTS was going to exploit this to their supporting advantage.
FEAR had been a promoting catalyst for just about all of the doctrines the WTS has made.
Fear sells well when you combine it with ignorance

The WTS/JWs have always used current world events such as wars, famine and plagues to support its doctrine of mankind is living in the " Last Days ".
The factual reality though is that these certain events occurred much more in previous centuries/generations prior to 1914 but you have to be reasonably educated to know that.
Thats how the WTS exploited people's fears and ignorance to build power and money around themselves, lie and bullshit to the public and wait for the susceptible naive and gullible, all premised upon thats what the bible says.

How Come we never saw this before????
by Newly Enlightened inoh my goodness!
how come we never thought of this before?
if the israelites had animals to sacrifice to jehovah in the wilderness, then how come their god jehovah had to give them manna so they wouldn't starved to death?.

Perhaps your wife should take up some history lessens, famine has happened for thousands of years back in human history and worse many times since 1914.
The JWS is an organization of stupid people teaching others stupid ignorant things.

need input: Asked my wife to show me in the bible where Christ became King in 1914
by goingthruthemotions inso my wife is so diluted and brainwashed.
during this time she is having so much anxiety, mainly because me and my son's want nothing to do with the religion.. so the discussion was, i told her will never go back because they go way beyond what the bible teaches all the time.
i brought up overlapping generation, 607 and then i told her...show me where in the bible that jesus returned invisbly in 1914 and started ruling?

Skin says .......
You really have been blinded by Satan. How can you not believe all those things are fact and truth.
Men who profess false bible teachings are opposed to Jesus and Jehovah, they are being guided by Satan's spirit of lies, deception, not the true holy spirit from Jehovah.
1 John 4:1 .....
4 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
