This is true. I've thoroughly learned that most of my co-workers and the people I went to high school with (and the teachers, with one exception...) are sheep who will listen to anything anyone else says. I swear, one of my co-workers sounds like he may not leave his house until the vaccine is available.

I dropped a low key truth nuke on a work meeting recently when I told them I'm pretty sure I had the virus and kicked its ass before it really could take hold.

I have a coworker who said she is not coming into work until a vaccine is ready. She is at risk you know, overweight, hypertension, asthma, and out of shape. So we have to change EVERYTHING for her to feel safe.

We have been working from home since mid March. I took the extra 2 hours a day that I save in travel time to add more exercise in and I am down 15 lbs and lean. I'm sure she put on the covid 15 plus.

Screw you and your lazy ass. open up the country and if YOU want to stay home then do it.

Hahaha, I know right. I actually feel like I've been more productive than ever recently. If we were back in, say, the 19th century, we'd simply think it's a really tough year for the flu.

Yeah, you have to look at the demographics of the deaths, and the geographical distribution of the deaths. Essentially all old and/or frail people whose lives would be endangered by any slight illness, and all concentrated in urban areas, where population density greatly encourages transfer. Dragging down the rest of the country amounts to poor management of the situation.

Yeah me too. I'm down about 20 pounds and have way more time to build.

Keep it up! I had already been amassing a nice collection of Dumbbells before the prices skyrocketed. So i have them up to 50lbs. That to me is plenty

Good for you... because I mean like... isn't the official medical treatment for COVID to sit there and deal with it until it goes away? (People should know this by now)

To try to find HCQ and deal with it.

Haha, even better. But wait, the media told me that was an unfounded conspiracy theory, dangerously repeated by the president. I don't know if I should go near that stuff. In fact, I might die.

Indeed. You might. I might. We will all. Refuse to be a victim.
