In my opinion, just like with everything else...if you are going to get it, you will. Hiding in your basement is not the answer, you cant stay there forever. I refuse to live my life in fear, if its your time to die, you are going to and I'm borderline in the kind of danger group. Age, 60, high blood pressure and a diabetic, but close to safe level without taking meds. With pills my levels drop to save zone. On the plus side, I'm with in 15 pounds of my ideal weight and size that I reached at the age of 28. I dont smoke, drink a beer every once in a while, and I'm in decent shape, can halfway hold my own to a point with 20 on 30 year old at the gym my son does his MMA training (for fun).
If I get it just like with everything else I will deal with it. My wife is in the danger group because of heath issues. Neither one of us think the world should stop to protect us from this. We all die and we dont stop the world to figure out a way to stop the deaths from car wrecks
Quote:Nearly 1.25 million people die in road crashes each year, on average 3,287 deaths a day. An additional 20-50 million are injured or disabled.
You can say that for a 100 other things. Let this run it's course, deal with the deaths as we do accidents, drinking, smoking, and high blood pressure, heart disease, and the common cold. There's zero reason to tank the worlds economy and the future of our sons and daughters over something that is mainly killing those who know they dont have long to live....
without this virus
Now with that I'm going to be honest the future of my sons and grandson will be greatly enhanced by this just as it was in the fall of the housing market. At some point I'm going to sink 50% of the cash I can get my hands on. Just like the houses we bought in 2008-2009 has more than doubled. I expect to make just as much, if not more money off of the fear of idiots.
This is part of life, deal with it and move on......we dont stop the world because 3/4 of a million old people die of heart disease each year. It's selfish on any persons part to think we should, now.
