    Your quote is from some guy, I give you this from the actual president.

    “We have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better, just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work.”

    Sweet Lord. This guy is an author and a researcher for economic inequality. Who cares what he thinks about how to contain a virus? One guy is not "the left".

    Fever smelling a bit desperate tonight with his posts. Maybe he is finally realizing he has been backing a moron.
    We are seeing front row how an idiot reacts to a crisis but Fever is posting arcane and silly links.

    I'm curious, did you read the article or just post a tweet about it?

    Student in our daughter's small town Middle School just confirmed....

    Eek. This is a small suburban town of 9,000 that exists for the schools. Probably 60%+ of that 9k are in and out of school grounds and buildings daily. It must be wide spread in town at this point. Fuuuuuu

    What is the point of this honestly? It clearly has a qualifier at the end (for now).

    Also I had the same opinion back then but have educted myself. There are scores of people still saying this today.

    That was the Italian thought a few weeks ago. Today? 1800 dead and counting, and nobody over the age of 80 is being admitted to the hospital. Need the beds for younger patients.

    What is your estimate as to how many will die from this in the US?

    And yet so far the Pandemic of 2009 is like Nebraska facing our Gators in the Fiasco Bowl. Why don't we do what Obama and the CDC did back then? Why the freak out when so far 2009 is making 2020 look stupid? I'm all for being careful, social distancing, but this is ridiculous. It reminds me of cutting off the arm to save the finger nail.
