People don't understand what risk is. It is NOT fear or worry. It is understanding what can happen, its probability of happening, and its impact if it does happen. Early on, wuflu was a risk. Its probability and impact were not understood or were heavily misrepresented. The original shutdown was based on the unknowns. The sad part is media and liberals have prevented anyone from reevaluating the risk. Which is a standard practice of risk management.
cOViD is not even really a risk for people with working immune systems. It's a mundane coronavirus, no more deadly than all the coronaviruses your body fights every day. Silently, your body's immune system is always at work, always fighting off viruses and infection.
Sometimes your body can't beat it and you get a cold, sometimes you get a more virulent virus like Influenza or Norovirus and you go down for a while, in the case of those two it IS potentially deadly.
For people without the immune response to fight off viruses, any virus can be deadly, which is just a fact of life. That's why people die when they get older. Their bodies become weaker and less capable of fighting off illnesses. Some people hasten this by abusing their bodies. Some people develop illnesses by circumstance and are compromised. For these people, CoViD any virtually any other virus that the rest of us don't even notice we fight off every day can be deadly.
So does that mean when a person gets old we wrap them in a bubble? Really if it's not covid, it's something else right? No, that's not a life for them. They are humans with the need to be around people, to be hugged and treated with dignity. That carries risk, obviously... but nobody gets out of life alive!
Life is full of risk. COViD is just one more thing that can hurt you, and it's not especially high on the list.
Leftists make a desert and call it peace, or to put another way end human society and call it safe.
Truly. I'm saddened by the number of people who willingly stop living in order to maybe avoid dying. That's not living; it's just not dying.
I love Big Brother!
