How many extra people will be killed by a May 1 opening of the economy?

[MrBetitall]

Simple question. How many more people will be killed by the TrumpVirus by a premature opening of the economy on May 1 vs a more realistic opening on July 15 or Aug 1?

100,000 more deaths, 200,000? Maybe someone you know?

Mr. Coward should be your name. Probably sitting in your house scared to death sitting in a bubble all protected

 

[REDEYE]

Better question..How many more deaths will we have if we don't open the economy back up by May 1st ? Padded numbers for Chinese Virus vs. deaths associated with a depression , people losing jobs , and poverty.

As long as it’s old people getting killed after may 1,
then that’s an acceptable trade off for a more robust
economy. At least that’s what some have mentioned here.

You will never open it up if your fear is for old people. The regular flu will kill them off.
You can open it up and still take precautions especially with the vulnerable.

Actually a better question would be "would you be willing to knowingly kill someone you care about in order to open up the US economy weeks earlier than it should be"?

Just you.

It is Easter/Passover time, sheriff joe,
try to think and say nice things.

 

[Knightrofins]

I wonder if we can open up "a little at a time".

Maybe certain areas that "reached their peak" already could open up sooner?

Tough call

 

[Albatross]

Open it up. Have restrictions on the nasty cities like NYC and New Orleans. Life goes on

Over what time frame?

Under what restrictions (e.g. social distancing, masks worn, temperatures taken, tracking, etc)?

I hate to break it to you but COVID-19 or not, old people will die after May 1st.

It won't be only "old people" (e.g. Trump, the Pope, Clint Eastwood) dieing due to COVID-19 after May 1, whether the economy opens then or not. Would it be ok to sacrifice Mother Teresa, if she were still alive in her 60's?

 

[Willie99]

less than 10% of whatever you assholes think

it's tradition

 

[bigbet1234]

Hopefully just one, you.

 

[StevieRay]

Come on now, don’t call the Chinese virus the Trump virus. I thought we were going to be cordial or we will have to go back to school

 

[TimmyRules]

Guess all of us eventually....:think2:
