    A plan for getting back to normal
    If the reason we are destroying regular peoples lives as well as an economy is to be sure there isn't too much strain on the healthcare system, is this an alternative?-- How about if you are feeling sick, but are under the age of 50 or so (we can debate the number) you don't go to the hospital? You'll recover. Too many people go to the doctor in normal times anyways. If one has a cold or flu,, everything you need is at CVS or Rite Aid--that's one reason our health insurance is so high in this country. But back to the problem at hand--everyone going to hospital when sick doesn't cure the current virus. Everyone thinks they're so smart with the 'stay at home' rhetoric--yeah, stay at home if you are sick, under 50 and in decent health. Leave the hospitals and doctors for the people for whom the virus will be more serious and let's get back to work.

      No replies because it's a stupid idea. You know there are other diseases than Covid-19 and the flu/colds, right?

            But people who do not have COVID 19 needs to think twice if they have other medical
            emergencies on whether or not go to the emergency room because you will most likely
            become infected with COVID 19 as Medical professionals don't have enough protection for themselves let alone uninfected patients......

            So unless you feel you're going to die you need to stay home or visit a emergency care
            medical facility other than a hospital....

            Or find a hospital that has no COVID 19 cases yet............

              Or a friend with a bunker, ventilator, private doctor & nurse. You know who your friends are.

                  Pushing fake narratives and controlling public opinion.

                  Is a million times more important to the news media, than solving real problems or saving lives.

                  That's what makes things hard. The problem itself isn't that hard to solve.

                    younger people are getting this too with serious complications. granted they might survive easier but it is still scary as hell. it is not just the older generation.

                      Pauly--now where did I say anything from the side of a personal bias (which is absoultely what is implied when anyone goes with the "Where do you get your news--Fox/CNN")? I'm just throwing out ideas which recognize what our problem is and a solution which will not cause further problems.

                        I do realize that anybody and everybody is susceptible to getting the virus, pologq. My focus is on your words "they might survive easier". Please don't think that I'm one of these "let people die and be done with it" people.

                            Might want to work on your premise, some get the wrong impression, of your true intention.

                              Media: "Trump closing borders to infected travellers is racist."
                              Media days later: "Trump should have closed borders sooner."

                              Media: "Face masks do not prevent virus infection."
                              Media days later: "Trump should have done more to increase supply of face masks."

                              Media: "Chloroquine can't be utilized to treat corona, its not approved by the FDA."
                              (Still waiting on media to flip flop this)

                              Media: "Every country on earth has the virus contained, except the USA because Trump sucks."
                              (Let's see how long* they can keep this charade going)
