Some of those 200,000 did not die from Covid, but tested positive with Covid. 

Could you give us your sources for that assessment?

Sorry I'm done, it was just that poli sci major in me.

If we went by the latest CDC data on risk, we wouldn’t even be testing players for covid, we’d just be playing football.

 But do you tell people to stop playing football indefinitely?  The virus is never going away.

Certainly no one cared about me when I was laid off due to the lockdown (not the virus) lol.  

1: Just like how Ebola, SARS, MERS, H1N1 and other global viruses never went away? We’re all still suffering so much from those epidemics, right?

2: Does “no one” include taxpayers who funded the special Florida & Federal unemployment checks you were eligible for most of this year?

That's the only way to gain Herd immunity!

 

How many deaths do you think is an acceptable amount? Is there a number at which point it’s too much, or are any-and-all deaths a-okay?

The longer we hide from the virus, the longer it will take to gain herd immunity, thus the longer susceptible people are exposed and increasing their chance of getting the virus.

So, I ask you the same question.... how many deaths are ok?

Circle the wagons around susceptible people and let it run it's course.

How many deaths would have been acceptable?

There have been 187k deaths so far in the continent of Europe, with its total population of 741m.

There have been 200k deaths so far in America, with its total population of 328m.

I suggest that half of our current death toll would have been the upper end of what’s acceptable. Instead it’s double what it should be, because some stupid people were never taking this seriously as early as March.

So I ask you again: what do you think is an acceptable number of deaths? Is there a limit to what you would consider to be acceptable, or does it not matter how many people die?

@94 Bull Would you like to tell me how many deaths are fine by you? Or do you not want to admit that you don't think it matters how many people die?

Your idea that the longer it takes for everyone/the herd to get the virus, the chances of an individual getting the virus goes up, is ******* laughable. Absolutely contradictory logic. "If people don't get the virus now, people are more likely to get the virus later". Hilarious. You should do stand-up comedy.

Nobody really knows who the susceptible people are,herd immunity would take 70% of Americans getting covid which could kill up to 3 million Americans, are you ok with that?

His silence speaks for itself. To some people, human life is irrelevant.
