Figured out the point:

- They must be identified to remove their rights to get any kind of financial help from the country/state if they are hospitalized for the disease.
- If they get sick and hospitals are full they get lowest priority.
- Their insurance companies should also be informed.
- Shot on sight if they come to close to regular civilians who are properly applying the social distance.

You said "open economy" while isolating eldery/weak, using masks, which is the sloppy slogan our spanish pard resident used before his country get massacred by the virus.

World leaders are pushing it to restart activity in the most optimal way, and it means some people will die because of this, already.

Thanks God: They can hardly hide behind anonymity to claim and decide to push it even more further, or to invent magic solutions.


I'm saying we need to gradually reopen the economy by retaining some social distancing, what exactly are you trying to say here?

It's obvious that more people will die from coronavirus in that instance than if we locked down everything indefinitely, but locking down for extensive periods with no exit strategy would lead to a lot of death too. Loss of jobs, income, starvation, isolation leading to depression, suicide, etc.

There isn't a good option here, just less bad ones, and the least bad is reopening the economy. If you disagree with that you're disagreeing with most world leaders who are currently prepping for this exact scenario.

Eu leaders are already on it, but you may have to consider they may not restart things as fast as you are expecting.
Well at least you are not as bad as this other guy from "god is enough" guild, who is promoting the sacrifice of his grand ma.

So lets be productive: yet they are worrying about the next step, the next months and an eventual second wave.This is the real problem.
Worst case being a bad mutation, best case a good one.

Flat Earth Societies are furious about this.

Calling stuff like this tyrany really minimizes real tyrany and makes combating real tyrany harder when the time comes.

Just make everyone who shows up sign a waiver that if they get symptoms they can't come to the hospital to make our lives harder.p

They can be free to infect whomever they want among their friends and family, and they can pray the covid away.

If they wish to act against medical advice they ought to be able to. As soon as somebody decides to act against medical advice anyways we generally say fuck em..... its their right they can die through their choices...i experience this commonly with dialysis... This does represent a chance to lose though most ignorant and uncooperative among us lol.

The usa is doing objectively bad compared to some countries. Sk and their ilk. We could have done better and flattened the curve quicker. And we didn't.

I do agree that the usa may have been filled with too many idiots to make the sk approach work tho. Gives me a real sense of patriotism....

We have a legit 400 pounder in my office, dude's about 5'7"

first guy to call it a hoax, first guy to say its a media overreaction, first guy to say shutdowns were dumb. then once i dug in a bit i find out he goes to bars usually 4-5 nights a week, only eat out, etc. so really hes mad his "hobbies" and food source are shut down. also he's the caretaker of his 90 year old parents who have no other kids. but he cant walk up a flight of 10 stairs without breathing heavy for legit 10 mins afterwards. last week the shop floor called him down after he just got back upstairs and you could hear real panic in his voice while he said "give me a few minutes and ill be down".

if this dude gets it him and his 90 year old parents are goners. all from a "hoax".

From economic paper:

If the economic downturn continues, the US financial system, relatively healthy so far and much better capitalized than in 2008, will suffer an unstoppable shock.
The disappearance of the income of millions of households and businesses that have gone into debt is already triggering a cascade of late payments. In a few months it could turn into a tsunami of defaults and bankruptcies.

You get it, byebye grandma
