Imagine. New York state fucking plateaus for months while the entire state is on lockdown. But "MUH CASES! MUH CASES!" Meanwhile the death rate stagnates.
Chicago has seen about 9k COVID deaths. 9 thousand. Yup. Locking down the 3rd most populated city in the US for a (no disrespect to those who died) measly 9k deaths. Ridiculous.
I would wager that actual deaths from COVID in that time period in Chicago are actually 1/10 of the reported figure. And that estimate is high. I deliberately made it high because of demographic factors that I'm aware of which make certain groups more vulnerable. I've spent a lot of time educating people in those groups as to how and why to protect themselves.
BTW, I'm a NYC resident. I could not care less about COVID. It is a non issue with normal precautionary measures taken. I wear a fake mask so I don't get hassled. For months I would even wear a damn mask but I got tired of being hassled. I still won't wear it when I walking around in the street or while doing work. And most of the people I work with don't wear it either.
We're in similar buckets. I'm so sick of seeing every person wearing a mask either alone in their car or with absolutely no one around them while walking around. This is so fucking retarded.
