I'm ngl, this whole covid situation has me extremely worried

Seems like an apocalypse. Has the world ever experienced anything this bad? Sure there have been pandemics but this time no continent with a human population has been spared

As much as we would hope for it to get better, it is only going to get worse by before that happens.

@latinbutterfly The peak is already behind us. The fear mongers won biggly.
@hippyjoe1955 Over 201K deaths worldwide, and growing.

@latinbutterfly Oooo that is scary. How many people die every day in the world? Did you know that the death rate in the US was lower this March than the last 5 Marches? Strange eh wot? Estimates now put the death rate in the US as being that of a bad flue season. Here in Canada where there is no incentive to inflate the numbers we have had 2465 deaths. Most are seniors living in nursing homes with DNRs on their files. That means .007% of Canadians died from covid 19. In the mean time Brazil has reduced its covid death rate by 95% by using the medicine Trump talked about weeks ago.

@latinbutterfly You like fear porn. I understand that. Like all porn, fear porn does not reflect real life. It does get people all wee wee-ed up though. Enjoy your fear.
@hippyjoe1955 Well that's your view and you are entitled to it, just like I am entitled to mine.

@latinbutterfly Enjoy your fear. When the panic has abated we can get together and have a beer and laugh at how stupid people are for getting drawn into these stupid panics.
@hippyjoe1955 And enjoy being a sheep 👍🏻.

@latinbutterfly Yes sheep are herded by fear of the sheep dog. There are much more sheep than dog and every sheep is bigger than the dog but..... Fear wins again. As St John wrote, "There is no fear in love. For perfect love drives out fear".
@hippyjoe1955 Look, let's just agree to disagree, okay? Are you capable of doing that?

@latinbutterfly I thought that is what I was doing. Not your enemy. Just expressing an opinion contrary to yours. I guess I have just been aware of more silly panics than you. Remember Y2K?
