Yes. That they get to make choices in life.
That's terrifying and fascinating at the same time.How the Virus Got Out (Published 2020)
We analyzed the movements of hundreds of millions of people to show why the most extensive travel restrictions to stop an outbreak in human history haven’t been enough.www.nytimes.com
It's a slippery slope. Everyone has a line. Or a different definition.
It is not essential to go see a movie if it is raining, but you can still choose to drive with that increased risk. Just because it is not as newsy does not mean millions do not make that choice every day to enjoy a non necessity.
Did you read the article posted on the previous page (or maybe the one before that) which says they're being forced to limit use of respirators to those under 60? Those death tallies you're so fond of are going to change."Study shows 99% of Italy’s deaths had preexisting medical conditions with 48.5% having 3 or more conditions and average age of fatalities is 79.5 years"
A better analogy would be driving while drunk, which (I hope) we all recognise as inexcusably reckless and selfish.
"Study shows 99% of Italy’s deaths had preexisting medical conditions with 48.5% having 3 or more conditions and average age of fatalities is 79.5 years"
2 questions to ask when determining if this relevant information: Firstly is the higher death-rate of the older people caused because they are being denied treatment, with ventilators etc being given to younger patients? Secondly, what percentage of the general population has pre-existing conditions (as high as 15-20% estimate in U.S.) and is this group being denied treatment because ventilators etc are being given to "fitter" patients?"Study shows 99% of Italy’s deaths had preexisting medical conditions with 48.5% having 3 or more conditions and average age of fatalities is 79.5 years"
The people still insisting on bunching up in grocery lines tells me we haven't gone far enough.I’ve gotten sicknesses when traveling that would surely have killed me if I wasn’t as healthy. And once when I was crazy sick with who knows what I went to a show that I already had a ticket for. I suppose a germ that I left on my theatre seat could have made the next patron sick.... idk.
I’m not saying the USA should do nothing. But I firmly believe we have already gone too far.
Just sharing facts. This is Italy's "nightmare".I realize your purpose is to alleviate concern over dying from it. Still, every death is one death too many from a virus that rapidly spread worldwide from China. If only China was more forthcoming as soon as they knew. But too late for that now. Sigh...

It’s good to hear that this is completely over in Italy and all of the final statistics are in....Just sharing facts. This is Italy's "nightmare".
Yeah, same here. I’ve been on the phone or in group chats since DeWine’s update earlier. We still have no idea where we stand, waiting for clarity. We won’t know until tomorrow.
