yes because everyone has the same reaction to COVID.
Ah, so you have no evidence that covid would have any impact on her at all, you're just scared. And because you're scared, you believe a hundred million people should starve so that you feel "safe" about his wife's well-being?
It's becoming so much clearer.

I never assumed she'd die. I said, and I quote, "it could get very dicey very quickly". What part of that statement says "she'll die"?
And you keep saying I have no proof, yet you have no proof of the converse. You're babbling about shit you're misunderstanding.
No, you're claiming certainty about shit you clearly know nothing about. As more testing is done, case loads keep going up. Yet death rates aren't increasing with the case load. You want to worry about your wife, have her isolate. Isolate yourself. That has nothing whatsoever to do with other people.
All of life is risk management. Any given day, you could die in a car crash or a shooting or choking on a fucking hot dog. You don't ban cars or guns or hot dogs. You manage your own risk to the best of your ability. Your risk of covid is not notably different based on hundreds of thousands of businesses put out of business in favor of Amazon, Target, and Walmart. Your risk is not notably different based on masks that're typically improperly worn and cleaned. We know the death rates, and the bottom line is, if you're working age, your risk factor is lower than the Flu. This is not something you should be worried about. It's just another cold.
And for the 900th time, I supported and still support incentivizing the elderly to self-quarantine. This can be done without punishing everyone else. Clearly.
