Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Coworker just got out of the hospital for it. Did a big write up. Said only at risk activity was going into grocery store because they needed specific items they worried they wouldn’t get through curbside. Wore a mask.
Said the scariest part was how hard it was to breath. Reasonably healthy 50yo.
Said second scariest part was lack of hospital staff. They had minimal interaction with staff while struggling for their life. Were checked on 1-2x per day by staff (almost never a doctor, sometimes a nurse, usually just a worker).
But several vocal people in my neighborhood are still complaining that their ‘freedom is being taken away’ by us not opening the communities/socialist pool.
Someone compared it: ‘a cancer patient doesn’t go to a football game and expect everyone else to wear a mask - they stay home. If you’re scared stay home’
I guess if:
cancer patient = being risk adverse
Optional Football = required to work to feed your family?
Even if the majority of people do the right thing, there are 5-10% (based on neighborhoods Facebook group) who want to go fast until they go down in flames.
Ask them if their freedom is being taken away when they are required not to smoke in restaurants, or take off their shoes for check in for the airlines, etc.
