KollieOlizig:
Is anyone here taking this virus serious yet.
alta:
no...
I'm very annoyed actually. Are they going shut down the world next winter too? Because now that the coronavirus is in the environment it's going to hit every year, just like the flu, and the best way to get a population exposed to a new virus so they might develope a resistance to it is obviously by hiding from said virus ::)
I need another drink

Are you saying that you would welcome being infected by this disease? Do you think you would be able to fight it off? And if you did wouldn't you be concerned about infecting your loves?
The last question is what I am concerned about.
I'm not sure how the government should be handling this. The world can't be shut down forever.
I did make a very unpopular comment to all my coworkers. I said that if they wanted this to end quickly then infect everyone.

If I had meant that I would have said that, what is the fascination some people have with putting words in other people's mouths.
I am a realist. I know what the government can control and what it can't. despite what liberals tell you, the government can't control a virus that has gone world wide before being properly identified.
Rather than answer a question with a question, how about actually answering it.

To be honest, if you don't want to "get it" you better be prepared to be locked down till there's a vaccine.. This distancing is "slowing" the spread, not stopping it. It's far too contagious to be "stopped".. Need to balance when the fear of going bankrupt (and living free) overrides the fear of getting sick. For a lot of people, that balance is starting to tilt toward just risking the sick and getting it over with. 2 weeks sounded reasonable.. 2 months? Then what, 4 months? 6? A year? Longer?? Gotta return to living and let it run it's course at some point..
