It is too bad that an individual decision leads to consequences for many. If this virus weren’t so contagious people could just take a chance and suffer the consequences of their choices which would be ok with everyone. Unfortunately, if you engage in high risk behavior and get it, then you risk passing it onto others since you don’t have to have symptoms to be contagious.

You may not be happy to know that the federal government has the authority to physically stick a needle into your arm and give you a vaccine shot.

Don’t confuse getting the virus from dying from the virus. Sad as it is, a tiny fraction of the people who get the virus die from it. The mortality rate among healthy people under age 60 is almost zero.

We have always quarantined the sick. This is the first time in human history that we have quarantined the healthy. There is no reason to keep the country shut down. If you are in a high risk group it makes sense to be cautious.

Opening the country does not mean everyone has to participate.

The last vaccine took 4 years. There is none for malaria.

Maybe by the "Last Plan" means the last plan in the Covid 19 guidelines. Once guidelines are lifted, no more plans. Everything back to normal! (Hoping)

Death just perked up its ears.

I do understand your fear. Perhaps some facts can soothe you.

Statistically, catching the virus is no big deal. Being in the high risk group and catching the virus can be a big deal. But we have almost total control over whether we catch this virus. Just don’t participate.

If they open everything back up totally, including stadiums and concerts, the vulnerable are at no higher risk unless they attend the game or concert. Making everyone else miserable does not make you safer. In fact, the ultimate fact that has always saved mankind is herd immunity. That’s where so many people have recovered and are then immune that the few who are at risk are safe because there are no more carriers if the virus.

Paddleball and basketball pose no threat to anyone unless they themselves play.

I hope this can make some people feel better.

Why not? It is an outdoor venue.

No way! Not buying it.

Seasonal flu vaccine is not very effective
 

Have you been staying home because over 45,000 Americans have died from seasonal flu even though there is a vaccine? We will never be free from the possibility if disease and no vaccine will be 100% effective.
