My life is NOT WORTH the entire country of America collapsing financially and other ways.

Well that’s the ridiculous thing about present political/government approach to coronavirus. Its not even a black/white choice of “old people die, or the economy is destroyed.” We can keep dp0622 around AND have a fully-functioning economy.

It seems the correct choice for government is - old/immune-compromised people need strict precautions, avoid contact with groups. Wear masks in public. Keep hospitals and especially rehab/Senior living places on high alert. Test widely, particularly among these groups. As long as you are not immobile and can care for yourself - do that and you will very likely be fine even if economy is fully re-opened.

Yeah that’s true.

I’ve been really lucky with the extra weight.

No diabetes, edema, high blood pressure, etc.

God has been good to me but I have started using this horrible quarantine to get in better shape.

I need to lose IDEALLY...70 pounds.

i think the reason guys I know who are my size that have so many co morbid conditions is because they were always overweight and mostly sedentary.

I am still living off of the boxing years in my 20s and hitting the bag in my 30s.

But at soon to be 52, it’s time to get rid of it!!

We have heard about many outbreaks and deaths at nursing homes. Have there been similar outbreaks and deaths at retirement communities that are populated by elderly, but not sick, people?
