Holy ....

I'm not sure when the peak of Covid19 will be but we may have found the pinnacle for melodrama 😅

I'll keep all the genocidal sociopathic historical events in mind..
but gonna go ahead and see if we can pull thru this ~ hangout at home for 2 weeks policy, before putting my rebel against the evil empire britches on.

Ha. Right. Our country is asking us to fight for it by staying home. It's not like we're being asked to go to war.
 
I didn’t say anything about caring for people’s family. I care for my elder mother. I still think you can’t shut down the economy and revoke rights for a mere 1.3-2 percent mortality rate. This is long picture here. All this money the government is pulling out of the “budget” is not good for our grandchildren. Someone has to pay for this.
We were going to have to pay it regardless. This route (early mitigation) is an investment to avoid a larger economic crisis.

Right, it's like people don't realize that. What do they think would have happened if we didn't mitigate and tens of millions got infected?

One way or another, the economy was going to take a hit. We are choosing the least destructive outcome....and an added bonus is that your grandparents or parents don't drown on their own lung fluid.

A *mere* 1.3 to 2.0? Wow. If left to grow exponentially, herd immunity would stop the case growth at between 33% and 71% of the population based on current R0 estimates. Your “mere” 1.3 to 2.0 would kill between 1.4M to 4.7M people...in the US. Fortunately the actual mortality shouldn’t be quite that high.

I understand your point. That’s a very high number and it truly saddening. But think if we go into a Great Depression, that’s not good for 330 million people That live in the US. 4 million or 330 million?

Regardless it’s a catch 22. Shut everything for 2-4 weeks and economy tanks. Have only some workers work and continue to spread the disease. You can’t shut everything down then ask the government for stimulus checks and unemployment. Lord knows where that money is going to come from. That’s what is scary.
 
Feel the same way about eventually catching this crap. I'm right there with you on being immunocompromised. I'm not convinced quarantining is gonna work. Will it slow it down? Yes. But I don't think it will stop the spread completely. I'll have to make a grocery run or something at some point, get exposed, and then we'll see. I know the outlook for people like us is supposedly grim, but if it happens, what am I supposed to do? Not much I can do.
If my lungs were not so scarred up, then I wouldn't be near as concerned for myself as far as mortality goes. I just figure like you, that since everybody has to get groceries and supplies, that eventually herding literally EVERYBODY through the same limited corridors will be how this infection spreads.

I really wish I could go somewhere isolated for few months and chill...but I can't...I have obligations to fulfill.
 
No...he is not..Butchie is just a mean crotchety old fart..

Dude went through hell for awhile, he is not weak...Others may forget, but I remember.
