Get real, a big part of it is that isolation is extremely hard on people's mental health. Trying to bury it in some kind of "we're going to kill the economy" message is really disingenuous. The economy was going to get blasted either way in this. You can pretend to ignore the train that's coming down the tracks at you, but it's still going to hurt just as bad when it hits you. Anyone who acts like life could have carried on as normal and the economy wouldn't be wrecked by this is completely detached from reality. |

Man I hope my Covid test comes back negative and antibodies a resounding positive. I think I’ve identified where I got the pneumonia (which feels 100x better already btw), wife said the reason she threw our humidifiers out was because the last time she used them in our Master bedroom (when we were all sick with some viral shit last month) the water was all gross and slimy when she went to refill it. That’s like a perfect storm for chest infection, pull out a humidifier to help when you’re sick and then find out after 2 days of running in a moderate space that it has slimy bacteria in it. Woman’s trying to kill me. :-) With the economy the way it’s headed I’m certainly worth more dead than alive. |

It may not make a difference at all, and then that's that, unfortunately... but say we get lucky and the virus mutates into a less dangerous form and dies off, or we do find some kind of vaccine or at least a treatment that helps saves lives and changes the outlook and projections on this thing. Then everyone who said "just get it over with" and tried to ram through herd immunity is going to have caused thousands and thousands of unnecessary deaths. |

I'll admit I'm in the "rip the band-aid off" camp right now. Might be smart, might be real stupid, but we just don't know. And it's very frustrating (redundant point is redundant). |

You stretch it out to give the medical community time to figure it out
