I'm sorry, I just don't think social distancing is going to work here in America. Neither is martial law to enforce it. Neither is 20% unemployment with schools shut down for multiple years.

Sounds like your best move is to relocate to another country.

What are low income families without childcare going to do, if both parents work? What are they going to do if both parents lose their jobs?

Why do you care? Just put them in the same bucket as old people and move along. To another country.

A vast majority of old people will die from other things regardless of how we respond to Corona virus.

Incorrect. All people will die from other things regardless of how we respond to Corona virus.

I would love to be proven wrong.


Have you guys seen evidence that the social distancing and closing down of businesses and school has had a positive effect on deterring the spread of Corona Virus?

so just take the 'we'll just figure it out and the weak will die' approach until we find perfect evidence

Sounds like a good plan if you want to thin the population

think of how much profit will happen in the undertaker industry
they'll be hiring gravediggers left and right
I think coffin makers are a good stock right now too

Might want to make sure your life insurance is paid in full too, will want your kid to have something to live on when we find it kills men over 50

covid-19 kills mostly old people, but not only old people.  plenty of reports out there of twenty-somethings hooked up to ventilators.   

no social distancing = no flattening the curve = hospitals overwhelmed = lots of people die, including the not-so-old.

what was that worse-case scenario that was published last week - 2.2 million americans dead?  TWO MILLION AMERCANS.  that won't be all grandmas and grandpas.

How many lives will be saved if we shut down all businesses and schools for 18-24 months?



Also figure on an extra 500 suicides a year if we have another Great Depression.


They found that those rates reached a record high during 1932, when there were 22 suicides for every 100,000 people, up from 18 per 100,000 in 1928

It’s nonsensical

Anyone with an immune compromised system could easily die

People like my sister with MS..

I am not happy about having my kids miss school but I will listen to the professionals

I found Space’s post disturbing..it really casts him in a ghoulish unflattering light..just sick of reading them so he becomes the first person I put on ignore...in I think over ten years..I just don’t want to read that kind of garbage

ummm....already there just with vets
veterans' records from 1979 to 2014, the current analysis indicates that an average of 20 veterans die from suicide per day.

i'll take those 500 suicides over the hundreds of thousands to millions of death projected if we do nothing.  500 would be a rounding error.
