So, maybe someone here can explain to me as to why most members here appear to be so concerned about deaths from some seasonal virus anyway? After all, there are tens of thousands of people that die every year from some seasonal virus that rolls around every year. What' with the big deal about this virus anyway?
Every day of every year, millions of people are dying from the many other diseases out there like cancer, diabetes, malaria, heart disease,drugs and alcoholism to name but a few. But yet nobody here nor the media goes on and on about all the deaths that have happened since this so called pandemic virus came along and started to kill people.
It's sad that anyone has to die but that is reality. So, I do not get all in a panic or fear over how many people are dying from this corona virus, which is one of many strains of corona viruses that comes around from time to time. There are more people that will die from cancer this year than will die from this virus.
Why are our politicians trying to shut down the economy as much as possible and act like communist dyktators where they pretty much have ordered us all to stay at home and do not socialize. Socializing is neccasary in life, especially for children and teenagers, who need that socializing and to interact with their peers to pretty much stay healthy and normal. They are most at risk here from getting what they need which is getting together with their friends, getting involved in sports, getting out there and enjoying the sunshine, and just plain being able to do whatever they wanted to do within reason. And we must not forget about the elderly who have now been pretty much locked down in their homes because of the fear spread to them that they are the ones that need to worry about getting this virus.
My opinion about all of this is ph-k it all. This so called scary pandemic virus will be costing more lives in the end than what this so called scary virus will ever do. It's not worth it to shut down the economy. In Sweden they did not shut down anything. They kept all businesses open, restaurants and bars open and they did not force people to social distance themselves from others nor not being able to get together in numbers and have a party or whatever. Apparently, there have been just as many deaths as there are in Canada, give or take a hundred or two, from the latest statistics that I have read. It's time to open up Canada once again and let's all start to get back to normal, and dam the consequences. I am willing to take my chances with this so called scary virus. Are you? Works for me.
