it’s sorrowful that one sailor apparently died of covid, but you’ll never have a more solid contagion case study. about 12% infection rate (so far?) from 4845 total sailors resulting in 587 supposed infections (didn’t see details on testing). in very close ship’s quarters for long duration, i’d say that seems very low to me, but maybe others here know better having been on board ship. .08% serious cases (4) .02% fatality rate (1)

Four sailors in the hospital out of almost 5,000 must mean something less than panic. "Captain Kirk to sick bay."

no kidding. many people can’t seem to get past irrational, *worse case* thinking—their own remote possibility of dying from this disease. and the leftist politicians are glad to gaslight and pander to their fear. meanwhile, the nation’s economy is being destroyed. it’s like the new “pre-existing condition.”
