Absolutely, take your parents and every person in your family over 60 too.

Time to get the hoax over with.

We have a 30 year old friend on a respirator at ST. Dominic's here who they have given up on. Just biding time until she provides an empty ICU bed for them.

Jesus. I’m so sorry man. I’ll send up a prayer for them. Have they tried Hydroxychloroquine or is it just past the point of no return? Reading stuff like this makes it so much more real for me. My mom is 56 and had 5 bypasses done two years ago and a host of other health issues some that I’ve shared about on here. I can’t imagine losing her or anyone close to me. Praying they find a way to shut this crap down soon.

Yep. They die or they don't. In the long range scheme of things, it never hurts to thin out the gene pool a little.

go get exposed


Many people are likely immune based on infection with other Coronaviruses over the years.

Looking like 20-30% of population.
It's why the Northeast is basically done with this.

You might not be able to get infected.

You do know people have gotten it more than once right?

No they haven’t. There are 14 million who have tested positive. If the tests are yielding 3% false positives that’s 420,000 people who thought they had COVID-19 but did not. If 5% of those actually caught COVID-19 later that’s 21,000 people “who have had it twice”, except they didn’t.

I want to laugh when young people think that they can't get sick from this virus, but it's far too serious to laugh about.

Melodrama. It is not without risk to young people, but neither are the many viruses we have lived with for years. It is not a very serious virus for young and middle-aged people who are healthy.

The OP should not intentionally get it, because in doing so, he and his family will likely get a big dose. That is what would likely make this serious. And by serious, I don’t mean deadly, just a tough sickness.
