In the future we will look back on this and wonder how we lost our ever loving minds.

In the future we'll take a major crisis lightly because we lost our minds today

Wow so impressive you know the unchecked death toll

I guarantee the death toll of a world depression will be worse.

Ugh. Fine, what’s your death toll? Pick a number. Shutdown still worse.

Even more amazing that it is only 5% of worst case projection for the U.S.

Actually, the elderly population is more like 15-20% of the population.

SWP

Only about 80% of the elderly will contract CV19 and only 10%-15% of those will die.

I'm curious, when it comes to abortion do you consider yourself "pro-life"?

Gorgias

Bingo. I’ve been asking this exact question for days.

That’s terrible logic

Yes, this is the easiest theme for medical providers to stand behind

When did millions of people dying become an acceptable loss?

when did millions die?

Dr's are scared? Dr's are telling people to not come in the get tested

Might find out real soon why doctors don't make good businessmen or politicians.

Ned Schneebly

agree, except I dont think the death toll will be anything close to 100,000.

Chazz Reinhold
