You never have been able to wrap your mind around the idea that was if we did nothing and just followed the “cull the herd” mentality that some of you and some of the conservatives knotheads are spouting.

How about you guys go first if it’s not that serious? Walk to the front of the line and get this so we can speed up the human immunity. Rush can earn that Medal of Freedom he got instead of sitting around blowing up grass sacks. All of you will deserve that award just stay away from folks who don’t want their loved ones or themselves afflicted.

I can only imagine what people in NY, Louisiana, Georgia, and FL are thinking now. But we still have people out here trying to trivialize a disease by cherry picking worldwide numbers.

(Why would anybody talk about starvation and malaria when discussing the US?)

What is the purpose of arguing the seriousness of the coronavirus crisis at this point? You and the rest of these people are wrong. Admit it and shut up before you get people killed.

I love and respect Jet Pilot. You never have to worry about his honesty and him speaking his mind. That speaks volumes to me. He is crass and opinionated. So am I. He is spouting his own truth just like you are CardFan.

I am quite the conservative but I'm not a knothead just because of it. And I think JP is dead wrong. I hope and pray he's correct, but allow me to share MY truth.

My grand daughter works in the Medical ICU. She has volunteered to be on the front line of Covid19 treatment. When she isn't working directly with Covid19 patients, she hangs around to "spot" the folks who are in full gear working with Covid19 patients to make sure they are safe. She logged in over 80 hours last week. My daughter is a flight nurse who has transported Covid19 folks. Even though everybody isn't infected, she must act like they are. She has a special needs son and spends 3 times the time normally taken to sanitize herself before going home. She works 24 hour shifts. My niece is working a triage tent in front of a local ER. So she gets to interact with EVERYBODY. She is working 12 hour shifts. Her son is a Kentucky state trooper with a pregnant wife, so when they get home, it looks like a detox center around their homes.

These people are my life. They insist that I isolate myself because if I get Covid19 I will most likely die. I listen to them.

I try to hide how terrified I am for them, but they are proud to do their part and more. I am very proud of them.

So you guys can bitch and moan and call each other names if you want. I choose to self isolate and pray for our future. The coming couple of weeks should prove who has the most accurate truth. Again, I hope and pray JP is correct.
