Serious question. How many more people are you willing to have die from this thing? Not looking for a long, drawn out explanation of "oh everyone's going to get it sooner or later" or "we'll lose more people from mental health issues" or "smoking kills more people than 9/11" or whatever. Just looking for a number. Another 100k? Another 200k? 500k? 1m? Just respond with a number of people you're willing to have die from the virus.
I don’t want anybody to die. If ask you the same question for heart disease, obesity, cancer, etc...how many more people are you willing to let die? Where is the outrage over processed food, fast food, toxic ingredients, etc....smoking causes cancer. They are cancer sticks...why in the world do we sell them? The hypocrisy is endless. We don’t live in a bubble where Corona is the only thing to worry about.
I have no idea how many Rona will get...just like I have no idea how reliable the data reported is. Millions will die over time from the Flu Virus...Cancer, accidents and other causes. None of these things go away, MERS and SARS still exist and are both Corona Viruses. We all assume the risk that these things are out there and people live their lives.
All I’m saying is that if you are 55 and younger, in good health you have a very, very low death rate...and depending on your source, and data set you rely on, for this group the probability of death is in the Flu ballpark.
Nobody is denying Rona is contagious, and deadly for certain demographics. All I’m saying is my demographic is more likely to die by accident than by Corona Virus. Based on Data and Statistics that are publicly available. I’m fine assuming that risk, you may not be. That’s fine, we all have our own risk principles. What I don’t like is having my risk principles determined by people with political agendas.
I mean...c’mon you can peacefully protest, riot, loot, and vandalize property...that’s ok...no risk there...right? Hypocrites for days....
There are better ways to protect those at risk than shutting down the world. This began with faulty data and death models, experts doubled down, data models faulty, more bad data, numbers off, double down again because these experts are “right”, and here we are. It’s like a lie gone out of control...too far down a path to admit you are wrong and pivot.
I’m waiting for my ban, but this is a Covid Email thread so who knows...
