  1. Over representation of African Americans with Covid 19 is not racist. The term does not apply. However, I will accept that black Americans may be exposed to risk factors that can be attributed to inequity and systemic racism. Just my $0.02.

  2. The men of Rohan also piled the corpses of Saruman's orcs in a heap and torched them. Not necessarily saying there's any parallel to be drawn in the current circumstances but...well.

  3.  @ChrisVillagomez  I was just being savage. The parallel I successfully failed to draw was that since in both cases the invaded party was left with the problem of numerous marauder corpses to deal with, the same solution might be employed.

  7. How much say in the matter do you think she had? She's 22 and her oldest child looks about 7 so... yeah. 😑

  11. Or the older doctors and nurses could be deployed to low risk roles, such as supporting patients with other conditions.

  12. Yeah who needs hospitals?

  13. Healthcare workers are going to need a lot of mental health support as we get through this.

  14. No it doesn't. But the statistical over representation of black Americans with Covid 19 appears to be a thing. The question I have is why should that be?

  21. Have you checked out the death rates for 10-20 year olds? 0.2% iirc and you're closer to the younger end. I'm willing to bet that the you're quite safe from the disease as it is. I understand your concern for your family. I'm not saying you won't have your life disrupted by the wider effects of the disease, but we all have to face that uncertainty. This is a good time to be brave.

  30. Not at all. People older than 65 are over represented. Whilst the age range from 0 - 65 is greater than 65+, younger people are less likely to need intensive care.

  31. Perhaps as many people die from flu as Covid 19, but we don't shut down the entire planet for the seasonal flu. We have shut down the planet for Covid 19 and we still have way in excess of 137000 deaths.

  39. So essentially the entire war of independence was futility, and the constitution is valueless. Thanks for the help with the axis, America. It was nice to know you. Godspeed and goodbye.
