Reality Check















56% of hospitalized patients in NYC are *under the age of 50*. And countless in ICUs who are in 30s, 40s, and 50s. Sparing nobody except those under 20.

Dying shouldn’t be the barometer. Lots of people under 50 are ending up on ventilators in the ICU

Living in absolutes is dangerous... I find his fear mongering offensive.

So he says biggest cities are the main culprits with the spreading of the virus. Fine, then let the rural towns get back to business.

People are terrified to go out because the media spent a month telling them if they go out and get the virus they’ll die.

There is a huge arse country outside of NYC and we don't have subways and aren't packed in around each other like sardines.

you misspelled "liberal idiot claims americans have never had to work during cold season or flu outbreaks ever before so the economy must be destroyed"

you should put on a blind fold and go run around in traffic on a busy freeway

He's a doctor and you're just a paranoid poster on tigerdroppings

I think I'm going to trust the MD over the opinion of posters on this board

The economy is not as important as my health. And anyone who thinks otherwise is part of this problem. We must accept that the virus will put us out of commission until May, and sacrifice our personal freedoms in hopes of a greater good, or else this will linger and cause more repercussions.
