Strangers are sacrificing their jobs and setting up GoFundMes to tide themselves over for you. You should do more than just protect your own. At least say "Thank You." But you won't, will you?
Sadly I believe that the deaths are going to climb to levels that will shock people. 100,000 plus in this country alone. Maybe 200,000. Over a million world wide.
That is a change of opinion for me from only a couple of weeks ago.
The worst of youth. Have at it.
People are more resilient than you think. They can sacrifice and accept a lot. If they believe that it is necessary. But they do need to believe that it is necessary.
So far I think that they do, and will continue as long as respected medical experts agree that it is needed.
I think it will get there. But not quickly enough to stop people from going outside.
Maybe. I really hope that I am wrong.
If not though someday read about the time of World War II, and what people accepted and embraced. People can surprise you at times. And sometimes, especially in the worst times, surprise you in the best ways.
The importance is having the guidance of our leaders and buy in to sacrifice and not support airlines trying to turn a profit.

It was a lot easier to embrace things together than separately (or arguing on HFboards).
Aw hell arguing on Hf boards gives is all social strength hah
I am all for arguing, and being jaded for that matter. About things that in the grand scheme of things do not matter much.
When we are facing an unknown, but likely shockingly high, number of deaths in our neighborhoods, states, country and world. When every one of us likely will lose someone that they know, who but for this virus would still be alive. Forever lose.
I prefer to be uncharacteristically optimistic about all of you and all of us. Because it does matter.
This is most comparable to war time measures, but it’ll be interesting to note the differences. During the World Wars, people had enemies they could see and fight, and their media was full of war propaganda. This microbe is invisible and the media has its heart set on stoking anxiety.
The media needs to stoke anxiety just to get all the nasty, vile mfers out there to do simple hygiene like washing their hands.
