I get what your saying. My example is, my dad has prostate cancer. Doctor says there is no reason he shouldnt't get another 10-15 years but also stated that if he got covid at the very lest he would expect him to be hospitalized. So if he got covid died in a few weeks, the nah sayers would say, well he had cancer anyways, so whats the difference between years and a few weeks. As if its splitting hairs. Or that covid didn't "actually" kill him.
my father in law had major throat surgery and uses that talking device now thanks to being a heavy smoker at one time. so if he gets it hes in big trouble. and he lives in florida. hes taking all the precautions and doing just fine.
I think both of these people - if they take the proper precautions - will make it through. if not? i'm not going to say covid killed them. sorry not trying to be cold about it. if you drink down some cyanide that kills you. there is a difference. am i saddened by even a single death? yes. but i've come to grips with my own death which allows me to look at the situation without emotion.
good people want shit back. evil people are using this to win a political election. some are here on this board. we have to keep up the good fight so they are not allowed to shut down the whole country.
texas doesn't collect a state tax so they can't be scared for very long. its a gigantic state with multiple gigantic cities. of course numbers are going to fluctuate. but the way they handled it... encouraging 100,000+ riot crowds and then clamping down on a bar that holds 20 people... just ludicrous.
I am in a blue state and my heart sinks when I see a red state back track.
