Who cares?

Why do people care?

Everyone will have this!

It's not deadly

Stop talking about it and live life

The faster it hits 100%, the closer we get to 0%.

Misleading title: Student body positivity rate is still around 1%; tests on those presenting as symptomatic or with significant COVID exposure has been coming in at 29%.

This is correct. Stop enhancing the narrative that COVID-19 is more dangerous than the flu.

Yes it kills old debilitated people and those with significant co-morbidities.

In young healthy college students it is incredibly unlikely to be deadly.

Only those who have other comorbidities. The elderly and the immunocompromised.

He said it’s not deadly. He didn’t specify anything.

Life has a (nearly) 100 percent death rate. Yet we don't shut down for that.

4th person I know died last week.

Granted, he was early 60s but I’d say it’s deadly.
