I still don’t know what you mean by your statement: “You are already dead.”
I have a very powerful immune system. I rarely get sick, except for sinus infections.
A year ago, around this time, I did contract a bad case of Strep Throat, but that was due to an Oral Surgery that took a while to recover from.
My only problems are back and spine problems and a slight heart defect that I was born with.
Why are you so worried about the virus? I believe that if you think you will get sick, then you will get sick. A self-fulfilling prophecy, if you will.
Since this paranoia started, I have helped my mother prepare. I’ve helped her purchase food and other items. She is a paranoid person, so I’ve been one of the zombies who have purchased toilet paper, paper towels, etc. That is, when the stores actually have some in stock, which is rare.
I’m not causing any suffering for others, so don’t accuse me of something so absurd.
I fail to see how I’m “reckless”. I’m an introvert and don’t go to stores unless I have to. I much prefer the company of my two dogs and cat to the company of most people.
I know that I won’t become ill from this virus but, if I suspected that I was infected, I would happily isolate and quarantine myself from other people to protect them. So don’t you dare accuse me of being “reckless” or selfish.
As I stated before, it is very hot and humid here, so I doubt the virus can survive in our area.
I am angry at China for this mess. I hate that dumpster fire of a country. During the “Russia, Russia, Russia” insanity from the dems, I told many people that China was our most dangerous enemy, not Russia. Hopefully, now, they realize that I was correct.
I also hate China for torturing and cooking poor dogs and cats alive in their damnable markets.
But, I also hate and fear the erosion of our civil liberties during this paranoia. Are you not afraid of what this could lead to?
Are you not afraid that forcing businesses, especially small businesses to close, that we could experience another economic depression? And that could cause people to blame Trump and elect Biden (or Hillary)?
Many Americans will suffer financial disaster from the overreaction from the government. And that wouldn’t bode well for President Trump.
I would still vote for Trump, but many would not because they would blame him for the crumbling economy. The media would definitely be pushing that narrative.
Of course, people should use common sense and be cautious. Unfortunately, the hysteria is getting out of hand.
This may be way beyond your pay grade but let’s try.
Positing generalized societal risk from one’s personal experience is foolish and may be dismissed out of hand.
Let’s try this. Take the expected infection rate of your state. Of those infected assume 50 % are asymptomatic. Of the remaining infected assume 20 % need hospitalization. Compare this to existing hospital beds in your state.
Post justification and documentation for the first assumption and any changes in the others.
Math may not be your strong suit so ask here for help.
Or better, use Cuomo’s numbers as a worst case and adjust from there.
Now adjust once again for two scenarios - one under total lockdown and the other under voluntary “please stay off the beaches and keep six feet apart and wash your hands” scenario.
If you won’t do the math is pretty much proves you are an attention bore - aka AOC - and you should quarantine yourself to the flubros forum as a flubra (their name not mine).
If you don’t care about the results you are a misanthrope, again much like AOC.
