You seem to base your entire objection to things based upon your political stance and not on facts. I find that extremely disingenuous especially since you say Trump doesn't care about the people only the economy yet you don't care enough about the people to realize that those same people will be either living in a tent or trying to swap a sofa for a bag of groceries if they don't get an income stream restarted.
If you have ever played slots, cards, etc for money you have taken a greater risk with your financial wealth than you would be if you went to work/school now based on percentages only (350,000,000 ppl vs 125,000 deaths) everyone in the world today will die (fact) but out of those positive covid19 cases 4% have died. Now take 125 thousand and divide by 350 million and that is the actual percentage chance you have of dying...

This is the kind of simplistic thinking that the conservative crowd seems to really attach to. Any explanation that involve expertise, are rejected in favor of math they can do on a watch calculator it seems.... no wonder Trump controls the non-college educated crowd... what rock are you living under to divide two numbers and declare that is 'todays' risk????????
What is your risk of dying if you get sick need a hospital and all beds are full? Calculate that number for us. Furthermore, lets say it isnt coid. lets say it is something else. Tell us what two numbers to divide.
(And declaring that' the media is wrong and hospitals being full is a hoax' is not an answer.)
So kids. Kids dont die from covid. Who gives a F? Thats not why they cant go to school.
Having a population of kids going to school every day will create a massive reservoir of infection. Heres how:
- Kids will not be tested regularly
- They will only get tested when they show symptoms
- Due to our slow testing results, HIPAA laws, etc, it will be days and weeks before test results are communicated to schools. Actions will be slow
- Disease will spread quietly across the entire school population
- Families that need childcare- that need kids in school so they can go to work- will be over-represented in the kids in school. These tend to be adults that go ON to have otehr contacts outside the home, every day.
- Families that think it is all a hoax will likewise be over-represented in this population
Meanwhile, after a few weeks of school, these kids are going home every night. Infecting everyone in the family. Weekends at the mall, with older family members.
The idea that kids dont get it, kids dont die, kids dont pass it along AND- importantly- when they are 'going to school' there is some kind of bubble around them such that the only environment in which they interact is 'school' - is woefully simplistic.
Finally, another FOX talking point: Other countries have done it. LOL. Countries which have testing. Countries that have CONTACT TRACING. Countries that have their pandemic under control. We have idiots here in the USA that refuse to wear masks, that refuse to talk with contact tracers ("Im an American, if I wanna kill myself its my G D right, boy! Aint gonna talk with no pinko wanting to know where I was")
Sorry to be so short, people are dying, people are ignorant, and ive just had it with BS.
