Creekwood, but statistically, not a single one of those people in your diagram would have died. the hospitals are being overrun because of the media hysteria. i'm hearing the hospitals trying to get the word out that if you get sick, you don't have to just rush to the hospital. but your comments are not helping. for almost every single person, they recover after mild to moderate symptoms. the very high risk people, however, should be much more vigilant about staying away from others, just as they do during flu season.

What do you think is going on in the world right now? Near 200 countries fighting with this virus. Maybe all the leaders are going to stand up on Wednesday and yell 'April Fools'???
 
It will be interesting to see if Vapers are affected more by this virus since they are pumping oil into their lungs and this is a Respiratory virus.
 
Commonwealth has now gone to Stay at Home, after the Governor saw the beaches full of folks over this past weekend.

Boaters are going out as well as fishing groups. Folks aren't listening! Saw one pontune with 8 guys get stopped and the VMP was at the ramp advising and inspecting.
 
Why is 10 the magic number?
Doesn’t it just take one person to start the whole damn thing?

On of my sons is a vaper and always has this little cough as a result. He denies it because its been there so long he doesn't even realize he is doing it. his lungs and throat are clearly always irritated. I warned him that if there ever a time to stop, it was now. But they are all smarter than the rest of us. As much as I would like to say Darwinism, I don't want to see my "smarter than anyone older" 26 y.o. on a ventilator.

At that young age most of us was invincible also. Now most of us just hard headed. Is that possibly the same?

I'm in constant awe of people in my town and their abject stupidity. We have smallish park in our town that's quite popular; it has walking paths, a soccer field, playground. Parents were treating this as just a vacation and taking their kids to the playground; it had to be blocked off. Next people were having full on soccer games and the nets were taped up; people ripped it down. The walking paths are so crowded it's not possible to isolate. The park is supposed to be shut when too many people try to use it, but even yesterday there was a big soccer game underway.

Similar thing for our town beach. Some people were using it for solitary walks, until a bunch of kids were having parties in the parking lot and on the beach. A bunch of assholes even had a gender reveal party of 30-40 people in the parking lot. Gender reveal parties are stupid to start with, but why would you want to risk your unborn child that way? The town ended up completely closing the beach because of these schmucks that just can't seem to grasp the concept of "stay away from people".

So why can't the police just go and break up these large groups?

The cops probably figure, 'why risk my health by making contact with them'. What they need to do is just start lobing irritant grenades into the parking lots and break up the groups. I hate the idea of seeing a police state evolve over this situation but unless someone comes up with a better solution to flatten the curve other than physical distancing, I can see it coming to that. What blows me away is why people think that they need to go to a park to take a walk. How about just walking around the block and just pick routes that are less congested. A little common sense can go along way.

OK, I'll bite. Maybe it's just because I'm an old fart, but what the heck is a gender reveal party?

Thats where the family and friends get together and reveal the gender of their upcoming child in fantastic ways usually with pink or blue smoke/balloons/or other stuff... Had a friend that did it with colored Tannerite and a 50 cal. rifle.

OK I guess I had heard the term before and knew what it was but with all this gender identity crap going on I thought maybe it had something to do with letting the world know what you thought your gender should be rather than what you were born with.

I like the idea of the colored Tannerite! What a great way to announce it with a bang.
 
What ever happened to just waiting for the doctor to pronounce “ITS A BOY”.
I am so sick of this instant gratification culture we are stuck in. I guess I’m just becoming a cynical old fart.
