Corona virus update : It still over blown!!!!! People, we are seeing a death rate of about 1.3% and probably much lower than that because there are a lot more people who have the virus, but haven't been tested to be part of that statistic. If you're old stay at home, if you're young go out and have fun!!!

Just be careful not to get into an accident or any other illness because the health care system is currently has better things to do. Oh and don't worry about killing off the 15% of the elderly and causing a lot of those over 30 to get severely ill. Most of them will survive anyway bar some lung scarring.

How many deaths and burned out health care workers does it take to take this seriously? I hope you're joking.

To be fair, though, our pandemic of the century is peas next to every other one that preceeded it. Let alone average life less than a century ago, when we had to deal with endemic measles and tuberculosis - which together were worse than a perpetual Covid-19 pandemic, in terms of how many people died every single year.

Of course, statistics never convey the impact of personal tragedies that each of these deaths represent...
