Stimulus checks

Shouldn’t gramma just walk out on the ice flows at night like an old Eskimo before she exhausts her estate in the nursing home? She’s burning-up my inheritance.

When resources are scarce this is just how it works. When our time comes to walk the ice, we do it for the youth.

Heavy on that “we”, pal.
You sound like the chairman of the Obama Death Panel.

Why did people take solace in thinking this virus is only a problem for the old or sick?

 

[ignerntbend]

I won’t speculate

Because it's pretty well known knowledge ANY virus or infection is moreso harmful to that group LMFAO

You pose a good question, but I don't see the numbers adding up.

This virus doesn't just kill a person like strychnine, or arsenic, or some other poison, or a bacteria like the black plague, or that flesh-eating bacteria. It's confounding complications that kill people such as with compromised or weak immune systems that can't fight off pneumonia, or people with heart conditions, etc. So far, I haven't heard of anyone who is basically healthy being killed by this virus.

Agreed, It could fit in anywhere but yes it's being blown out of proportions. Is it bad, sure. But as bad as the 1918 -1919 flu bad, NO. Predictions show it being somehwere around the Russian flu, Asian flu, Hong Kong flu levels. Maybe up to the 17th Century plague to Antonine plague levels. Considering the population of the earth is a lot higher now than it was then this is a blip on the map. And right now it's still less than the 2009 - 2010 flu levels.

The media is no longer a source of information though. It's a source of what they want you to focus on and think. It used to be that things were stated as the facts as they were and move on. Now there are channels dedicated to "analyzing" whatever is going on. And it's done by people who are injection their own opinion and ran by people who are interested in ratings. Even the local channels are caught up in the BS which is why they are plastered with the headlines. And the bad thing is so many people have it ingrained in their minds that they need to pay attention to it all that they drive it to larger heights.

Glance at the headlines and move on, the news is not life. Be aware of what is happening and then turn it off. If you watch any of the 24 hour news channels for more than ten minutes a day you are just feeding the trolls.

Well, I said only. However, you are incorrect as far as I read. The 1918 flu.
