Stop being so selfish. 1% mortality rate is still a lot of people abs would be higher if schools were open!
NP here but PP is not being selfish. The selfish people are those at bars, restaurants, parties, etc. Many of whom are over 65 or have underlying conditions. All the while 7 year olds have to stare at computer screens all day. That is selfish.

You can bet your butt it's the boomers' fault the schools are closed, the businesses are imploding, commercial real estate is doomed for a decade because they can all "work from home" in their smug flush retirement secure overpriced homes. Bet your butt a massive dollop of blame sits right on top of their constipated bellies. Boomers have zero skin in the game. Especially the childless boomers. The boomers in my neighborhood who had no problem closing the pool all summer because of their irrational fear. Doesn't effect them, they barely go to the pool, haha they're so content. Meanwhile, all the kids in the neighborhood are shut down all summer long. Shut the bars? No big whoop to the boomers! They sip their vodka gimlets at home anyway. Shut the theaters forever? Whatever, they have plenty of $$ for every premium channel. Shut the schools? Have at it, they aren't effected at all and besides those noisy bus stops annoy them every morning on their leisure walks anyway.
The absolute most spoiled generation in all of history. The only generation ever to not have to face its own mortality. No wars. No depression. No disasters. They grew up in America's golden age and inherited the greatest wealth ever created. Then they spent it all. Built equity in homes all the rest of us are now expected to buy from them so they can head south. The most cowardly spoiled generation ever who now is faced with a small taste of mortality, a weak flu virus that is taking out a relative handful of their numbers (250K out of 360M people? hardly a massive pandemic no matter how you slice it), a virus that is a window into their own inevitable death, and they freaked the hell out. They shut everything down. They doomed us all. Because they have no skin in the game. They are the eternally damned generation.
Never ever underestimate the intense scrutiny every self satisfied boomer will undergo at those pearly gates, pleading with Peter to please, please, please let them take their retirement money with them. They earned it!! It's a tight squeeze through the eye of that needle but you know they'll try hard to get through, and bring their insipid golf clubs with them.
Aww, it was going so well, and you were almost (well, almost) convincing with your correct English sentences and your vocabulary and grammar, but then you had to go and drop the "weak flu" propaganda lie. Just couldn't help yourself. Outed as a troll and summarily dismissed.
SO close!
Uh, flu is a coronavirus. And any coronavirus with 99.98 survival rate through the age of 60, then drops to 99.95 through 70, then drops to 94% or so from there is a WEAK FLU VIRUS. 250K or so people dying out of 360 MILLION is WEAK. If people were dying in the streets, if it caused hemorrhaging, if children were dying at all, if hospitals were ever even remotely close to full, if there was any reason whatsoever to fear this virus at all, then I'd be first one to say "shut it down". If thousands of children were dying in April the whole world wouldn't have hesitated for a second to do all this stuff we've done. But none of that is true, and you know it, or at least your left shoulder good angel keeps whispering it to you but you keep up your obstinate defiance.
Notwithstanding the political harpies on this board and throughout the DMV, the EXPERTS (oh we love you experts, smooch smooch) advised every draconian measure and the federal and all state government dutifully executed all of it. You can't name a single measure that was advised that didn't get executed. And yet, here we are, "spiking" across the world and going through the whole kabuki all over again. Except of course in Wuhan (haha the irony is sick) and Sweden (yes, Sweden Exists). Why? Maybe, just maybe, because the did the OPPOSITE of what everyone else did.
Does none of this ring any bells in your belfry?
The flu is not a coronavirus. Go back to school, you sad angry person.
Imagine what it must be like to know this person IRL.
Imagine resorting to ad hominem when your worldview collapses around you.
Read it and weep. Scream it out. Wake up. Boomer misanthropes living the good life while our kids - and the future of everybody - pays the 21st Century bar tab.

People are always shouting 'follow the science' on these forums. Well the science is saying not going to happen until 2022.
Lots of other countries have schools open. Are they not following the science?

Schools are back in person all over the country and there is no spread. Florida is fully back, kids wear masks less than half the time in class my kids' classes, and there is no spread, nothing happening, nothing to worry about. One day DCUM will grow up and see the error of it's paranoid ways, and then the paranoids will blithely shrug it off, because just like with all narcissists (and baby boomers) they will only care that they got to "work from home" and buy a bowflex, so what the big deal, right? They won't care that the biggest impacts were on their own children, on their own aged parents isolated in their final years, on their own communities, on their own businesses and economies and neighborhood amenities, on their own school systems and on their own freedoms. They have theirs. They could shelter as long as it took. Damn the rest.
Did you see the thread in the health section ...11,234 cases reported in Florida in a single day.
https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/933140.page
Yup, don't care, nobody here does, because nobody dies, it's a total lie that the hospitals are full just like it was a lie the first time around, elderly are allowed to live and see family and not be locked away in their final months and years (BTW, ask any 80 year if they're willing to risk dreaded COVID for the sake of living their remaining months with family around them and free to make their own decisions: you know the answer before you even need to ask), the kids are in school and thriving, businesses are open and thriving, people's freedoms are mostly intact...need to go on?
The CogDis is phenomenal. Masks work? Then why the spike in cases??? Distancing works? Then why the rise in cases??? Destroying the economy because "every last life matters" works? etc, etc, etc.
We are ALL GONNA GET IT. GROW UP!!!!
And when we do, we'll all be FINE! Except the 80 year diabetics (still a 94% survival rate, duh). But then again, we won't be fine. Because we will have destroyed our economy, our businesses will have been sucked up in the multinational conglomerates, our freedoms will be eviscerated, our kids dumbed-down into oblivion, and our social graces and simple functioning completely retarded.
Well, I mean, you all will be, in the DMV.
Okay.
A bride-to-be in Texas has died from COVID-19 — just five days after she was supposed to walk down the aisle, her family said.
Stephanie Lynn Smith, 29, had been looking forward to marrying her fiancé, Jamie Bassett, on Nov. 13 in the same field where they got engaged in Lubbock, NBC News reported.
![]()
Her face looks round. She was probably overweight, and according to a-holes on DCUM, it's no problem, because fat people deserve to die.
No. But if she was high-risk then she deserved to stay home in order to isolate herself from the virus. That she got COVID strongly indicates she didn't isolate herself, besides the fact that she thought it was a good idea to have a wedding during a pandemic.
