How is it that after all we’ve learned over the last 4 months, we still have people changing the subject by talking about risk factors, infection rates and death rates?
People dont want to admit to themselves that theyve been duped.
When it began, I thought it was complete nonsense. When sports shutdown, then I completely flipped and was really worried. Those guys dont just let billions of dollars burn arbitrarily.
But as more time has passed, its obvious that for most of us, its not a big deal. I think it is obviously more contagious than other viruses we have encountered. Yes, that is concerning. But for a very, very, very, very small percent of people is it proven to be fatal. And as crass as it is, Im sorry, but that minute percentage doesnt outweight ehat we are doing to impoverish so so many unnecessarily.
Go get tested if you want. If you want to wear a mask, feel free. If youre perfectly healthy those measures are completely arbitrary. I wish people would get that through their thick damn heads. MOST PEOPLE do not have it. Glaring at them in stores because they are healthy and therefore chose not to pointlessly wear a mask is assinine.
If youre sick, keep your *** at home. If youre old and vulnerable. Keep your *** at home. If you are in contact with people who are high risk, take common sense precautions.
The remaining 99% of us are ready to get back to life.
I havent stopped working as an essential Fed employee. The only thing thats changed for me is how incredibly inconvenient shopping is with so many people grouped to a few open stores while others are arbitrarily closed. Its complete idiocy.
