Are we going to have “voluntary martial law” when the 2020 flu season starts in October?
So far this flu season, the CDC estimates a minimum of 22,000 USA deaths.

After eight weeks of the COVID-19 epidemic in the USA, we have 85 deaths.
29 of those deaths occurred at one nursing home in Kirkland, WA.
Boyne shut down Big Sky Resort at the end of Lift Ops on Sunday.
It's total BS, but that's pretty much how they are. Moonlight Basin would have remained open.
We had quarantines for polio and measles before we had vaccines in the 50s, yet the country’s business continued and most things stayed open. No media shrieking about “we’re all going to die!” back then. No blaming the president for illnesses. How did we survive?
