The Coronavirus Chronicles -Three Strikes You're Out

Quote:Stichill: That can't be proven, any more than it can be proven that removing restrictions would not result in an exponential increase.
It's being proved in real time. Governor Noem of South Dakota resisted putting a shelter in place order and now that state is becoming one of the fastest growing hot spots for the virus.

The evidence is there and can't be ignored. Back in 1918 there was a shelter in place order for the Spanish Flu. Philadelphia decided to have a war bond parade anyway and thousands died as a result. 4500 in one week.

The economy will come back, it always does. But once somebody dies they die forever. I'm not willing to risk it for myself or anyone I know. Some say it's not that big a deal, only 2% will die. Can you name 2 of a hundred of your family, friends and acquaintances you're willing to sacrifice?

BTW am I the only one that the Quote This Post feature isn't working for still?
