All I hear is that old people are more vulnerable than young people in regards to covid... why should that even matter? Young, old, healthy, unhealthy, we are all Americans. If I get covid I will probably live, but I do not want to spread it to ANYONE!!!
I hear all of these arguments about it not being a big deal if younger people getting it cause they are less in danger of dying, but no one is arguing that WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER REGARDLESS OF AGE OR HEALTH!!!
Over 5000 people died in Hurricane Maria. Almost 3000 died on 9/11. Over 2000 died in the Johnstown Flood. Yet 198,000 are currently dead and more to come yet we are still squabbling about what precautions are proper and not proper? Shame on each and every one of us, including myself, who continues to argue on message boards in what is and is not acceptable precautions and not actually put things into practice that will save lives.
1000 people are dying each day yet we are debating whether we should have pro sports. Let's all hear it for priorities.

And those of us healthy enough to survive COVID-19 could still spread it to someone who is not, without knowing it. We are all potential victims. We are all potential killers. That’s how insidious this disease is.

Nice post. But the "we are all Americans" bit is less than totally accurate. Some are Swedish and British - and that's just me. More to the point, in this context, some are Chinese.

Progressives have made it clear that we are not in this together. They are in for only themselves. You find pro-sports worrisome enough to bring up but you didnt mention anything about the rioters.All I hear is that old people are more vulnerable than young people in regards to covid... why should that even matter?

Bottom line is my health is my concern, your health is not. We are not in this together and if you shut down all sports people would still by dying. You are selling a lie.

Many parents dont have a choice in the matter. The left has spent the last half century destroying the traditional family unit. Schools have been transformed into daycare centers and teachers into surrogate parents. Stay at home parents are a very small minority at this point. Its a little late to complain about something that you spent generations building.My surgeon friend told my wife and I this the other day. Paraphrase: "Latest reports I've heard is it's looking like the young children who are going back to school are gonna be hassled with a lifetime of low to high risk of several diseases, especially the lungs" I tell my friends to keep their children at home but I'm sure at least a few will still send them to school anyway." "The children will NOT thank them as they get older"
Amen to that. I would have been pissed at my parents if they knowingly put my future at risk..

Whether your stats are true or not has no bearing on my point. Very few children are being raised with a stay at home parent. Schools no longer have the sole purpose to educate children. Children staying home is not an option for many families.What "traditional family unit"? You might like to know that the highest rates of divorce are in your 'red' states; y'know, the traditionally conservative christian ones (Kentucky, Alabama, Arkansas), where the holy sanctity of marriage is rammed down throats every sunday. They also have the highest rates of teen pregnancy.

This is not an argument about the family unit being destroyed. This is an argument about every single one of us not giving a crap about each other. You have just proven my point. Let's argue about the traditional family unit when almost 200,000 people have died SINCE MARCH!!!
At this point it simply does not matter where Covid came from or whose fault it is. It is here. It has been here in this country since February and March. I care about what is being done to halt the spread and what ALL OF US are doing to do our part. More people have died in this country than the amount of Americans that died in WORLD WAR 1!!!
Unless you have not had any contact with anyone and have not left your house for the past 6 months, you are a hypocrite.This is not an argument about the family unit being destroyed.

Common back in the day, (pre-vaccine) including measles, mumps, etc. I’m not pissed at my parents, I’m healthy.

Almost, but not quite. Around 400,000 American military members lost their lives in WW2, and if current projections are true the numbers of US deaths from Coronavirus will be overtaking that by the end of the year.
Anyone with a high school education also understands that shutting down the economy and society in general is an absurd and unviable solution. Your pathetic attempt to virtue signal and shame anyone who rejects your nonsense is nothing short of pathetic.Surely anyone with a high school education realizes that no one can stay in their house for 6 months. Groceries need bought, Bill's need paid, medical al issues need addressed. It is called taking precautions. I am sorry that you don't realize this. You have already stated that other people's health isn't your concern. I'm sorry you feel that if you give someone covid and they die you wouldn't care. You once again prove my point that people need to give a **** about their fellow man.
