Is your graduating student going to get a graduation ceremony?

It's infuriating how these students are getting shortchanged. The MSM is making everyone think they will die from this, but the reality is that most people have mild symptoms and recover. There was no reason to send students home from all over the country. I am in MN. We have a population of 5.7 million. We've had under 2,000 positive cases. Of those, we've had under 100 deaths. That is such a miniscule percentage. And of the deaths, the median age was 87 and 98.5% had pre-existing conditions. A large majority lived in assisted living facilities.

Instead of sending students home and closing down colleges and schools, we should have simply locked down assisted living facilities and encouraged the elderly to stay home.

It's awful what they are doing to young people right now. Not to mention the 22 million Americans that have lost their jobs over this.

You are absolutely right about quarantining those who are at high risk. Its obvious. Now the bar is you have to have had it to go back to work. Meaning, you have to get it to be cleared. Or wait 18 months for the miracle vaccine that will be obsolete by next flu season. Now that the precedent is to save every life, we have to close down every flu season.

It doesnt add up at all. This is intentionally bring done. People need to wake up and not be afraid to say the reaction to this is bullshit. We need to collectively acknowledge that compromised individuals die every flu season in large numbers. We will do everything to protect them, as it should be, but thats it. We do not force people to do things for the protection of others.

If the govt was really interested saving lives, they could do it way more cost effectively than saving 80 year old shut ins.
