5 Million Cases/161,000 Dead/Trump: "Pandemic's Going Away"Posted By Darian Rachal |
James, I guess the 250,000 people attending this event have a bit of a different perspective on the matter. I suspect they lack an element of fear that some seem to possess. Contracting the virus is not a death sentence. I know several people that supposedly tested positive for the virus. One or two had a bit of fever, others had no symptoms at all. One fellow that I know contracted the virus, was hospitalized and put on a respirator(or possibly oxygen?). During the night he became disorientated, removed the respirator(oxygen?), got out of bed, fell to the floor, and died. No relative was able to be in the room with him because of restrictions, otherwise, he'd have received help. Was his death caused by the virus? Not really, but I suspect that it may have been counted as such.Originally Posted by James Lacey
It's not deranged to realize that 250,000 people gathering together for Sturgis without little to no safeguards to prevent the spread of COVID, a highly transmissible disease, is a recipe for disaster. It takes almost no imagination to see and understand this, and even a young child could imagine it. I would guess that public health experts are shocked that this is happening and that it will last for ten days. Seriously, Darian, you think that concern over this event is an example of over-reaction? All I can say is thank goodness like-minded people are not in charge of our public-health policy and infrastructure.
