Oh right, so this virus is a gift to the old. Can't believe I didn't realise this.
Empathy for one's fellow humans, which in turn only to concern and a natural urge to lend a helping hand, is completely redundant when one has the great Canadian physician Sir William Osler in one's clipboard.

ignore the mention of Trump
All experts I heard say that the RO of Covid-19 is not 2 but 4-5.
The relatively long asymptomatic infectious period suggests a higher rather than a lower number - borne out by the fact that most of the stuff politicians and health experts are repeating suggests that about 80% of the population are going to get it.

Others blame the Republicans. Some blame the Chinese. Everybody blames Trump. Everybody needs a villain, evidently.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I'll blame any public official who has the balls to accept responsibility for their own failings in this crisis.

(so I probably can't blame anyone)

I don't think even 50% of the population is going to get it.

Those older folk on the forum may remember the one hit wonder "My Sharona"

Surely some clever band somewhere has produced an altered cover, "My Corona"

Should be a really catchy song... :tea:

Two similar red states. One recently removed their Republican governor and replaced him with a Democrat.
