Premium Member JayBirdHawk Posted June 29, 2020 Author Premium Member Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Death toll now stands at 125,484. I wonder if some people's cavalier attitude would be different if the majority of the deaths were kids, 18 and younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave up my family more than once to go somewhere to train for this. If this is how you felt about comments i made then i humbly and profusely apologize. That was not my intent at all but regardless it's on me. I have nothing but respect for those that join the military and have to sacrifice in ways i'll never understand.

While it is not an immediate problem, they say, it has "all the hallmarks" of being highly ad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much we still don't understand. https://www.yahoo.com/news/most-people-coronavirus-wont-spread-121034275.html The concerning thing about that article is that the basic message is that superspreading events are the biggest risk and we are seeing an uptick lately in superspreader type events like rallies, protests, concerts, etc. where people are both meeting in large crowds and not following basic protocols for reducing risk. As people see these happen, there is more acceptance when the next one happens until the match strikes kindling and you end up a month later doing an analysis on a past event ala the mass church choir spreads, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
