Shut It Down

Am I the only one that noticed that the ones who are big on shutting everything down, have jobs that aren’t affected by shutting things down. They still get paid.

Of course, they are. It’s also the ones who get guaranteed government checks

I have worked from a home office for a decade. It sucks. There are a lot of in person meetings not happening and causing biz deals to hang in limbo. These meetings are not being delayed due government but due parties not willing to fly to where a city is a "hotspot"

Day 130 of "Two weeks to flatten the curve".

How people are affected personally definitely influences thoughts and stances on the matter in a lot of instances. One thing I think is interesting is people(especially young people) like college students going to parties are harshly criticized and deemed incredibly selfish and thoughtless, which I can understand to a point. However I think it is worth noting that it could also be seen as selfish for an elderly person who has lived their life and enjoyed their “party/fun years” and so forth, to ask these young people to not live their lives to the fullest so that they can not put them(the elderly) at potentially higher risk.

I think this is especially worth noting considering that there is no real estimated time period for all of this to end. So if it was just two weeks or something like that, I can see how it would be incredibly selfish. But if you say no one should go to parties or bars or anything until this whole thing is over, we may be talking about several years. That could be a very large part of the years and opportunities for them to have these type of fun times.

Four weeks now of essentially the same % of positive tests. The "curve" is a flat as it can get.
Meanwhile..the virus apparently forget it only hates Americans.. Spain, UK, France
Spain has reported over 900 new daily infections for the last two days as authorities warn that the country that lost over 28,000 lives before getting its outbreak under control could be facing the start of a second major outbreak.
