[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are realistically pragmatic about this virus, the vast majority (95%) of infected cases survive just fine. Many if not most won't even know they had it. The deaths are predominately elderly with underlying health problems. [b]You do know 650,000 Americans die of heart disease every year?[/b] Who are mostly elderly? There are some unfortunate cases of younger people with underlying health problems who do die. And a very tiny number of mysterious deaths of younger people. But when you get down to it, 99%+ of the people who get the virus will survive and that percentage increases even more so for the under 70s.

This is not the black plague. And everyone, even the karens shrieking that we're buying our heads in the sand and won't someone think of the children, all agree that there will be a vaccine in 18 months at most. (I guess 17 months now).

The big crash to the economy is the sudden drying up of service sector spending. People have stopped spending money because we can't, outside food and drugs. Once the spigot reopens and we're allowed to go back out and patronize restaurants and go to the dentist, it's probable that the economic rebound will be quick and lasting. It may take a few years to get back to where we were in January 2020. If you have job security, go ahead and buy. [/quote]

Literally not the same but ok[/quote]

Ok? The Italian numbers and Chinese numbers show it's elderly people with heart disease and hyperextension who are at high risk of the virus. The average age of death from the virus is 80. We cannot pretend or ignore there would be an overlap between the annual deaths from heart disease and this virus. If you have the heart disease that will kill you this year and you get the virus, you will most likely die from the virus, just a bit sooner. Do you understand what a compromised immune system and health problems means when you get infected with the virus?

So no, it's not "literally not the same but ok."
