It is amazing how well these two factors, sanity and financial survival work together.

“It helps when sanity and financial survival line up.

Hanging focuses the mind wonderfully.”

“Wearing masks is dumb. It’s just the flu. Open everything and the government can shut up.”

Agree completely. The mortality of Covid-19 is about the same as the 2017-2018 flu: 1 in 5,000 in the US. So do what you did then; you obviously survived.

Or, force everyone to wear masks and act like it’s the plague.

We’ve been had.

No mask for me, period. And (horrors!) I’ll shake hands and share tables with strangers.

“ Wrong! Hospitals are laying people off. They aren’t super busy and they won’t be super busy until this lockdown ends.”

Yes, hospitals have been laying people off, largely because hospital administrators have curtailed all health care services that are not covid related. That turned out with perfect hindsight to be a mistake because the wave was much smaller than expected.

What I am predicting — and yes, I am contrarian on this — is that demand for health care will come roaring back.
