But I just cannot believe you are this ignorant here.
As someone who is supposedly analytical when making a decision & statement, it is beyond me how you can be this ignorant.
That hurts man, cuts deep. On one hand I read that and it made my day then suddenly your disappointment in me brought me down hard.
I understand fully the virus is real, needs containing and yes action is required. I just wish those actions were more along the lines of wash hands, don't touch face, self quarantine if returning from X, stay away from the elderly or compromised people, be courteous when you cough, sneeze etc
This grand over reaction of out doing the next in terms of actions and shut downs for a virus that kills a literal .000001 or less of otherwise healthy or younger folks is mind boggling.
Why do we see higher numbers in places like Italy or Spain, many factors but close quarter living, family togetherness, ignorance etc but I think each geographical landscape needs to differ reacting to containment.
On a side note Ive been stuck at home for 2 weeks now and am a little frustrated. I lined up (relatively close) with people to buy groceries this week on the sidewalk for 30 minutes and walked by a 2 foot plastic shield that protects a cashier (laughable) all to have the guy opening the door cough on me as I walked by. This is a literal joke. These measures do not replace common courteous and hand washing/no face touching. I could ramble on but logic is not part of this plan as much as panic is.
