what will it take for for people to stop being reckless?


People aren't being reckless. Literally everyone is sitting watching TV and wearing surgical masks now.

Clearly never seen a Maryland or Pennsylvania driver. One accident happens, and then there's a mile long pile up because lookie-loos wanted to see the crash. :P

"I don't believe you need 40,000 or 30,000 ventilators. You know, you go into major hospitals sometimes, they'll have two ventilators. And now all of a sudden they're saying can we order 30,000 ventilators?"

The criteria for triage are rather easy early on: if you're past retirement age, you're fucked, if you have severe preexisting conditions, you're fucked.
What will be really tough to decide is when the situation gets even more dire and doctors have to decide whether to give the one ventilator to the fit 50 year old, or to the 40 year old who has asthma but no other conditions.
It might even come down to something like: if a choice has to be made between similar patients, the one with underaged children will get preferred treatment over the similar candidate who's childless.

only that the trump video isn't "fake". i know you people have been taught to not believe your lying eyes and ears, and that he can't be responsible for anything he says or does, but that doesn't mean that people with a functioning brain aren't well aware of his attempts to mislead the public and downplay the threat of covid-19.
