Lets just try to make this short and sour, shall we? We are shutting down the world for something that only kills 5% of our oldest, weakest, and usually unhealthiest humans, essentially making us a better race? but if you say that in any way or form, you get pointed at like some loony-bin psycho who hates humans and people with no emotions or obviously no old or sick people in your life, right?.. wrong I have grandparents and great-grandparents and they are all above 68, i have 2 young kids, I have a cousin who has type 1 diabetes who has an insulin pack permanently attached to her side. So just hear me out here, here is what we know:
1. it kills 5% of those who get ill
2. it is in all sorts of people of race/age/gender/etc which have NO symptoms
3. it is contagious for an unknown amount of time
4. China lied about it’s numbers and isn’t recovering as good as you thought.
5. we have successfully shut down our economy over a risk that only kills a fraction of the people that it infects and actually shows side effects on.
so as far as we know, this virus, could literally be around forever, it will eventually get to everybody, it’s going to run it’s course like the flu did on the native american’s.. the Math is proving this fact, our history is repeating itself as we weren’t prepared for this.
I am NOT saying to just let everybody get infected and get this over with, I’m saying that our economy and jobs and people who can no longer take care of their familys, shouldn’t suffer for something that is killing off such a small number of our world.. think about it.. we have over 7 Billion people… so you do realize that 1 Million is only 1/1000th of a Billion right? sooo it would take 7.7 MILLION people to die, to even dent 1/1000th of our population, which nobody is even predicting such a thing to be so high. Hell we’ll have a cure by then or it would run it’s course by then… So why shut down full operations in our world? why have Millions lose their jobs? just go back to work everybody, because even at it’s worse, it’s looking like this thing won’t even dent a fraction of a percentage of our world population.. it’s simple math people, our reaction to this, is more dangerous than the virus’s effects.
Plus… we’re doing all this shut down stuff to protect most people that wont even die from it, and on top of that, a huge population of people that are retired, that don’t go out much anyway, who could just get special times to shop, and social distance them… you’re telling me that we can’t just make these rules apply to those who are vulnerable, and not to the entire world and mess up our economy?
End of Rant.. Feel free to hate on me in the comments, I’m just ranting what’s on my mind. I find this whole thing trivial and a prime time to invest in stocks (I’ve bought up a good 4k more in stocks as they went down another 30%.. i’m going to quadruple my portfolio by the end of the month at this pace, I mean, there is no way that all of this won’t recover with 95% of the population not even getting sick or dying.. so my as well invest! )
