If only Americans were not weak due to lifestyles choices from the nutrition that they choose, we have a virus that attacks the weak, now this perfect storm of; virus, weak immune due to nutrition, lack of physical health.  Boom, protect the weak because they will not protect themselves, everyone else will be restricted to the least common denominator

Just such an awful take.

Checks out. 


Anecdotal, statistically he is right. The typical person that gets really sick and/or dies from COVID-19 are those already in poor health or very old.

3 liters per minute. It’s pretty standard.

My friends dad is older but they wouldnt release him until he tested negative twice in 24 hours. I dunno if that’s standard or because of his age.

She seems like a stable person. Why go to the beach if you're so worried about social distancing that you bring an actual tap measure? I mean...

I've heard instances of this happening at the pop-up testing in Ohio as well. Not sure if this has been mentioned in the thread yet.

Over 1000 deaths today...

Our daily update is published. States reported 63k new cases, about the same number as last Tuesday. They also recorded more than 1,000 deaths for the first time since May 29th. Today’s number of currently hospitalized (59k) COVID-19 patients is the third-highest in our data. https://t.co/Ekjdh0rtJV

Seems like the numbers would be better (but still awful) if the people of Florida would fuck off.

My wife has a co-worker who claims to be absolutely terrified of getting covid, has been super dramatic on zoom calls because he thought he had it (tested negative). But he just got back from Hilton Head with his future in-laws and is going to Florida with his parents in like 2 weeks. He's driving my wife absolutely nuts.

We need to create a power ranking of worst kind of people during all this. The “my rights/no mask!” people would probably be at the top. I’d also like to nominate the person who’s always worried about what the numbers in two weeks will be, specifically after a holiday.

Can “the south”  be its own category?
