Suck it.
Watch and get real world numbers.
Also, bonehead, never said it was the same as the flu. It *is* in the same category, however...
And I never made any mention on those with long-term effects.
So, pack that one back where you got it.
I'm not one of the lunatics you see on tv, waving an American flag from the back of their pickup truck, going on and on about what looks like crap wrapped in the flag.
You are right. The healthcare system here is awful. Money driven and corrupt to the max.
Me wearing a mask and hiding indoors won't fix that.
I'm doing what people should do.... Exercise, eat healthy, avoid toxins like cigarettes and alcohol, hell...I even go one better and look for alternative treatments for things instead of running to get meds.
Truth be told, we've been looking to leave this place.
It's up to the individual to assess the risks and take action.
I know the risks (much better than you, btw) and make decisions daily on how to conduct my life.
Don't like it?
Don't care.
Life is full of risk.
Die on your feet or live on your knees.
