What an absurd analogy.

I'm afraid he has misjudged his base on this.

It's a beautiful analogy except that the OP is suggesting everyone has to eat the bag of Skittles and because everyone has to eat the bag of Skittles some people with cancer might get neglected or have it discovered in time to successfully fight it and live.

My grandfather is 85 and pissed he can't go to a casino.
As he said he didn't fight in the wars to be told he can't have a beer and play slots.

you sky screaming hysteria mongers are praying for this virus to kill.... filthy people ruining our once great nation.

I thought this too but I just spoke to someone who has seen this firsthand
Not something to play around with. In the past few days they have put 12+ people in their late 40s/early 50s with no underlying issues on life support
Take it for what it’s worth but I’m not going to chance this thing

It's not an infection curve. It's a testing curve. Why don't we see the amount of people that test negative?
Because there is very little standardization in testing protocols. Infections are what tax the resources and when they spike, more people die due to lack of resource.

I’m with you, it’s a load of bullshite. check out the up vote down vote ratio. The country is loaded with limp wristed figs that want some one else to save them.

Just out of curiosity, what do you think the survival rate of the 1918 flu pandemic was?
You mean the one that killed 50 million people and was a million times worse than this one?

Logic and all.
There's no real downside to not eating the candy. There's a huge negative impact to shutting down society.

Just imagine if CNN reported every recovery instead if having a fricking death toll. This would be nothing. The great Sheepening of 2020
Currently of US closed cases, there are 176 recovered and 340 deaths. That way of reporting would cause even more panic.

The "did you have Corona and didn't know it" thread had more recoveries in that alone....

Current global death rate according to Johns Hopkins is 4.5%
