BTW my daughter has had Covid which means her, my son in law and my 3 grandkids the youngest being 3 months were at risk. I didn't panic, I trusted the data. |

That’s good to hear on your family. How did they know they wouldn’t have a problem if they got COVID? If you can solve that riddle this could all be over! I’ll let the healthy front line workers who’ve needed hospital care themselves know you’re working on this!

You specifically said in this thread you weren’t going to quarantine from your family. How did you know they wouldn’t have a problem if they got it? |

I didn’t which is pretty stressful since I’d see healthy coworkers need hospital care in the prior months. But I have a 2 year old and he was throwing fits with a closed door so I knew quickly that wouldn’t work. I never had the choice to work from home through this, so we had discussed all scenarios when this started. I decided not to quarantine after his fit and wear a mask in the house. Wife had it by the next day so then it didn’t matter.

Lew you are a smart enough guy to know the data and understand it. You are way way too emotional on the topic to think objectively and posts like this prove it.

It’s goes back to the argument about this only being about old people. During the peak 2 months in AZ, 10% of people testing positive in the age range of 44-65 needed hospital care to beat this virus. They didn’t die but needing hospital care for that many people, many who are healthy, should be taken seriously. That’s all I’m asking. Many in AZ are asking the state to stop the mask mandate. It makes no sense. Wear masks and keep business open. Drop masks and have this spread like wildfire again and businesses will close again.

While I understand the data and my statistical chance of this wrecking me, it’s still too variable for adults of all ages to not have basic precautions in place. I’ve personally known too many healthy people have a hard time with this. It saddens and angers me that many in this country would prefer we just pretend it’s not here and do nothing different. |

If the IFR is really around 0.6% then around 35M to even 40M Americans have had Covid-19. Which would be about 11% of the population. How far will that go to curbing the spread since 1 out of 10 Americans have at least some protection or antibodies? How long after recovery from the virus is one USUALLY immune?
