COVID 19 JUST ANOTHER FLU? [I Ve Got Something To Say]

RESEARCHERS ARE NOW SAYING the best way to build the herd immunity is to allow everyone who is healthy under the age of 40 to mingle go back to school and work if you still have a job,let these healthy people be exposed that way the herd immunity will grow naturally and the safer we will all be. they now are saying the virus was here as early as late jan, so shutting us away in march ,was like shutting the barn door after the horse has bolted.they panicked the feds remember trump saying up to two million people will die if we dont,people will be dropping dead on the subway. lol their bad leadership has led to 10s of millions unemployed growing higher daily,moneyless jobless ,who have more to fear from the economic consequences.Its a shame we cant build immunity from the state .

Everyone has always said the best way to build herd immunity is to get most people sick, especially not the super young or the older folks, this has been known for decades, nothing knew there.


The problem is that then all the young people bring it to the old people, how do you think it got I'm all the nursing homes to start with? Either employees or visiters. So the theory of the plan works, but the reality of the plan it fails as someone has to watch over the elderly and adults (usually a number over 40) have to watch out for children, either as parents or employees.


People are acting like there was a good answer, when if you look at it realistically there wasn't a good answer, every answer had major huge f'n draw backs.



If you wanted the best for the people, shut everything down for one or two month until the virus died.

If you wanted the best for the economy, then let the virus go wild and let many die and build up the immunity the quickest and all of the same time.


Worst case scenario, is you half ass one of these, ans then half ass the other, meaning neither work correctly and you just prolong the event which is what the US has done.

@Viper the problem with just letting folks catch it is that something like ten percent end up crippled for life. That's gonna cost us all something! Then when people think they're cured it comes back. Then they keep spewing viruses for months afterwards. Best not to get it to start with.

@Tastyfrzz Like I said, every method has a clear drawbacks, there is no one completely good answer.

Other than socially distance, and wear a mask and face shield when you can't.
