    Looks like the restaurant my mom works at is gonna fold, because no one is visiting the mall it is located. in So she was devastated. Been a here since 1990. 61 years old. Knows nothing else. Don't know what to do if it closes. 

    Fuck corona. 

    (Thank god she lives in Sweden though with some kind of social safety nets. But still...)

    No one allowed to travel to Sweden. Seems to be a general EU directive for 30 days.

    So, a question... 

    Now we are pretty much locking down society entirely as a whole and people are kept isolated, and stores and restaurants will not survive and it will be a huge blow to the economy, peoples jobs etc.

    At the same time the mortality amongst people under 50 or whatever is not big. And with all these measures - if just someones visits Sweden later and has it it will spread again, just like now...

    So why doesn't we keep sick and old people on a super lockdown - and the rest just live as normal and get infected and live through it (but with some washing hands-precuastions etc) for the 2 weeks or whatever you are sick? With the mortality rate being as low as it is. And then we will reach immunity in society and people (not old and sick) can keep going out, and shopping etc.

    Having curfews and saying people should stay at home seems to be a weird way to stop it when it will explode again with just one person having it walking into a crowd.

    I mean, is this gonna keep going until a vaccine is out? Or what is the end goal here...

    Maybe I'm missing something here. I'm tired and it's late.

    Gonna grab myself a beer, as Reel Big Fish sings.

    You people think I am stupid/silly/crazy for sharing what I shared before.
    Well, listen to this guy speak. It's nice to know I am not alone with my thoughts.

    just read an article abour fox news and the main personalities put forth similar  suggestions only adding in NK too. also completely downplaying the seriousness of this thing.  YET as soon as trump outwardly changed his tune , so did they.

    so please forgive me for not believing a word of it.
    You can believe what you want.


    Begging you man , stop posting conspiracy theory's. You have posted a number of completely invalid claims about this , we are in a time of panic and anxiety and this does not help the conversation. I have seen graphs and other things posted that are false.

    Try to take a deep breath , I would ask you to just look at CDC and WHO sties and keep off everything else , in times of panic you may fall for things on the internet.

    Be well   

    Sorry. It won't happen again

    But what constitutes a "sick and old" person? A certain age? A certain diagnosis? 

    I think your premise is sound enough: get sick, get it over with, and move on with your life...rather than walking on eggshells in fear of catching it. But I think there'd be a lot of people who think they're healthy enough to deal with it, but really aren't due to immune systems, lungs, etc. But they might not know that until they catch it.
