I don't know why people keep saying this as though it is comforting. Two bullets in the gun for Russian roulette is not more comforting than one. And I wonder how many men in their 60s die of the flu each day.

Many many many of us are old and not so healthy. Even young healthy people have parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles who may not fair so well. Let us worry if we want to.

Thanks for the clarification - and I appreciate that you've admitted to being a fearmonger.

(But yeah in all seriousness, you're totally seeing this as a means to nationalize our health care.)
I work in healthcare. I know more about this situation than pence or trump.

Gaslighting indeed with Biden showing up on ABC telling us Trump has muzzled the scientists.

Then complaining that Pence isn't a scientist.

Meanwhile in the real world, it sure seems like Pence kicked some rear end and got those scientists moving on the test kits.

Certainly. I bet Pence is the Scientist coach/whisperer. Cause you know, they need their ass kicked to know to get to work. And the Doc was scheduled to do 5 shows, then he wasn't, then he was, but....
