Corona Virus, How has it affected your area so far?
By Eboneezer 2020-04-19 12:52:15
People love to say "my right to do whatever the *** I want" "say whatever I want" "Everyone else be damned".
Just like you like to say, "I'm scared so no one else can live their life like they choose because outside is scary."

If outside is scary (like it is right now) it's because there are stupid people on the loose
If there was a way to keep an idiot from infecting an non idiot, it would be different.
If you want to darwin yourself into the hospital, I'm 100% on your side. You do you. How do we keep people safe from you. And why is it fair for nurses and doctors to have to treat your stupid ***. If you knowingly risk infection, they should let you die.

Take personal responsibility maybe? Make your choices differently. Suck your thumb? Hide under the sheets? Walk around in a bubble for all i care. But you don't ever get to tell me how to live my life

People have been telling you how to live your life, your entire life.
Try doing 100 on your local freeway. Try picking up food in a store and just eating it. Try robbing your neighbor.

And you're a piece of ***. You knowingly risk infection everytime you open your mail. This virus is never going to just go away. Or do you actually think it is?

None of the things you listed infringe on my rights.

I would be interested in just what exactly you think your rights are.

Almost everyone risks their lives every day, as in the things I previously listed. oh, and others lives by their actions too. You can't breathe in car accident. You can't breathe in assault rifle. You can't breathe in sweets.
A Pandemic is a biological weapon. Guess what, if you have HIV and you have sex with someone that's a crime.
Quote: It is possible to be charged with attempted murder if you know that you have the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV, the virus that causes AIDS), but engage in unprotected sex without telling your partner.

Hey, you ever hear about Vaccines? They're this neat marvel of medical science that, while not eradicating a virus, can drastically improve your ability to fight it off.
We, currently, do not have one for Covid-19.

I would be interested in just what exactly you think your rights are. Let's start with your fears dictating that I can't patronize businesses, or go to work at said businesses to provide for my family. Or I can't enjoy recreational activities because you're scared.

lol, you have to wonder where this *** that rural states aren't at the same risk as NYC is coming from. Um, yes they are. If anything, rural states are at a bigger risk because they have less resources to combat the virus. Fewer hospitals, fewer doctors, fewer medical supplies, fewer tests.
As we have seen in South Dakota, the coronavirus has shut down 2 meat processing plants and infected hundreds of workers. That is a huge risk to the entire country. Thats where our food comes from. If covid starts sweeping through the farmlands and shuts down our food sources, what then?

Well then I guess we should just let the world collapse while we wait for one, huh? What good will it be for us then?

inb4 the already debunked AIDS/SARS reference!
Edit- Damn! Too slow >.<

Obviously, the source is garbage, but damn.
Quote: COVID-19-related deaths rose Saturday by two, to 86, and confirmed coronavirus cases increased by 85 to 1,790. Kelly’s office said six deaths and 80 cases are tied to religious gatherings.
Talk about spiking. What percentage of a jump is that.

Smoking is idiotic
Drinking is idiotic
Taking drugs is really idiotic
Overeating is idiotic
Drinking sugar drinks is idiotic (one democrat nominee wanted to ban them) 1. Yup and in some states the places you can publicly smoke are limited in a push to mitigate the effects of second hand smoke. Anecdotally, I don't know anyone who allows smoking within their house anymore.
2. Yup and public intoxication laws exist in an attempt to mitigate the effects of drunken decisions effecting people other than yourself.
3. Yup and laws exist to restrict access to them.
4. Yup, but basically only directly effects you.
5. Yup, but basically only directly effects you.

You're not allowed to use percentage that's dishonest.

Sounds like they're not social distancing like people seem to think they are.

Well then I guess we should just let the world collapse while we wait for one, huh? What good will it be for us then? If our economy and society is so fragile that a few months of limited activity, because literally no one is suggesting a full shutdown for 18 months, causes it to collapse, it probably deserves to collapse.
I'd rather it not happen, to be clear, but I'm also not a fan of throwing the workforce into a viral cesspool and relying on thoughts and prayers to save them and their families.

It is.
Tell me your realistic idea of this shutdown. How long? How much spending to allow it? When do you allow it to end?
Do you believe this virus will go away with these measures? What's stopping it from coming right back at that point?
If i could click my heels and make it disappear, i would. We can't sustain like this much longer.

If everyone stayed home for 14 days it would've been over already.
But people insist on going to church and the beach and funerals and weddings and dinner parties.
You're only making it worse for yourselves.

That is impossible to expect. People need food/water/medical/health supplies.
So, today was the first case of the virus being confirmed in my rural county.
This last week has been pretty insane to start. Most grocery stores have been emptied, toilet paper is non existent. Bars, hotels, and casinos have been shutdown as of yesterday, our town relies heavily on these sources of income. There are now rumors that our mine sites will soon be shutdown as well. I plan to withdraw a substantial amount of cash from the bank tomorrow morning, and hit every store I can get my hands on to get some groceries before the hoarding gets any worse.
I have heard of California being on total lockdown, as well of rumors of people even being imprisoned for attempting to leave the state.
Curious to hear how other parts of the country are getting along, surprised there isn't an official Corona-Virus thread here yet.
Crazy stuff.
