This virus will more than likely infect the majority of people, and not just Americans, who will recover, just as they do from other infections. Are they going to close every store? Every pharmacy? Every bank?

This isn't the apocalypse. The cooped-up and the masked have been duped into thinking that these measures are necessary and reasonable.

They're neither.

Tell that to the nurse nearby who has 23 patients with the virus, 22 who are on respirators.  You are sadly mistaken.

I would venture to guess many people are walking around or working with this because the testing is so far behind.

Projections for my county are 50,000 cases and 1,000 deaths by May 1. No more hospital beds by mid April.

Our state health commissioner said everyone will get the virus.  That would most likely wipe out at least half of the elderly population.  She may be right but I cannot believe she actually said that.

With all due respect, I very strongly disagree with your viewpoint.

These precautions ARE necessary to spread out the timing of people getting the virus so that the hospitals aren't overcrowded past capacity to treat patients.  

So the whole world has been "duped"?  By whom? and Why?

I defer to infectious disease specialists regarding that. So I guess you're out just as you were before, exposing yourself to Covid 19 and potentially exposing everyone you come into close contact with?

Who is duping people? Dr. Fauci, Dr. Birx, every infectious disease specialist? The CDC?

For those who believe this virus isn't any more dangerous and won't effect any more numbers of people than the "usual" flu, and are ridiculing the precautions the experts want people to take, will you stay home when you get sick so that someone else can have that hospital bed even when your lungs are so filled up you can't breathe?

I doubt it.

WOW!!!  Big Lots is paying their employees an extra $2.00 per hour?? A whopping $16.00 more for an 8-hour shift!!  (Minus taxes, of course.)  Those lucky employees are gonna be rich when this is all over!!

And how much tax-payer money are these corporations going to get from the $2T ?

Do you still believe the world is being "duped" and that the stay-at-home order is a "ridiculous overreaction"?
