Whats the difference if it is contagious or not? ........ So you are admitting that this is not about the number of deaths, but rather the fact that it could directly affect YOU. ..... You're not really concerned about how many die as long is it's not you or yours. The numbers really don't matter.
I refuse to believe that you are an ignorant person,
TwoBi. So, I'll try to explain my positions another way; maybe you'll make a
minuscule effort to understand where I'm coming from rather than creating an argument, ok?
l'll try to use nuclear weapons as an example, instead. The world doesn't have nukes going off around the world, why? Because the world has seen the potential destruction potential of nuclear weapons (WWII) and has decided to avoid using them at all cost. Of course, there are those countries in the world who would love to have & use nuclear weapons, because they don't have the same concerns.
The coronavirus has a potential destructive power that most viruses don't have ... its easy to get infected, it infects & spreads fast, there's no cure or antidote as of yet, and it has a stronger killing power, especially for those of age, preX medical conditions, etc. So, the objective is to take away as many tools the conronavirus uses to mass-infect the population. Personally, I think this virus was manufactured for exactly THIS purpose; proving that will be difficult, but if the enemy has this, as well as an antidote for ITS country, this type of warfare has great potential.
As far as my "selfish" concerns and my NOT caring how many people it infects as long as its not me or mine ... you're a fool & ass to say that. I simply heed the warnings of people much more capable of understanding the potential & danger of this virus than anyone
HERE on this forum, except for possibly
H-H,
who knows EVERYTHING ... me, I'll go with the scientists & doctors, as H-H doesn't even have or want a job. Your ignoring the warnings & protocols for getting RID of this virus diminishes its success, it helps the virus linger much longer into our future, and it helps the spread of the virus through your own selfishness to OPEN up your frik'n business before its safe to do so.
So, as far as I'm concerned,
TwoBi, the one who is strawmaning and
acting ignorant in this discussion between you and me is
YOU, because you know the right thing to do,
but you're thinking of your damn work & money. You're the one who needs to take a
true assessment of your true intention.
What are you doing out if you are listening to the scientist and doctors? Not to mention this is YOUR ASSUMPTION. And no, I'm not going to touch your pathetic deflection.
I'm beginning to realize you
ACT as though you're
NOT correctly comprehending my points because you have
NO sensible response to it. My point primarily is that your ignoring the safety rules is putting those who ARE into danger WHEN we go out. I wear a mask & gloves, and use sanitizer wipes on buggies, etc when I'm out. And when I return HOME, I wash down with disinfectants. By the way, wearing those MASKS do NOT protect the ones "wearing them", they protect the people around them from acquiring the infection.
SPECIAL NOTE: You might also wish to check out the article from Bloomberg News, which reports that the White House as
barred Dr. Anthony Fauci, who's leading the US response to the virus pandemic, from testifying before the House Appropriations Committee hearing this coming Wednesday. Now,
WHY do you think Trump & his crony administration would bar the Director of the Nat'l Institute of Allergy & Infectious Diseases from speaking on the virus?
