    A name which was never mentioned on this forum is Dilip Kumar.
  4. Yeah, when he opened the presents and found the COVID he must surely have though "Who is the fucking imbecil who brought this?".

    Wiki tends to have many more articles nowadays. And this year many were created after redlinks being added to that page.

    Notable Coronavirus Victims

    Even if you manage to isolate all over 60s, the mortality rate is not the only thing you should look at. How many of infected would need hospitalization? A free diffusion of the virus would mean a rapid increase in hospitalizations, the percentage low as you want. Therefore the health system would be under stress again and the number of deaths from other illnesses among over 60s will increase because hospitals are full, so wil inevitably increase the number of COVID and non-COVID deaths in under 60s. Only way to avoid that is keeping precautions (which limits the number of available activities, indeed) and hope it is over soon. Any other strategy is a failure.

    Beside that, how do you shield 60+ years old in our society? Government wants 58-year old me with some risk factors, to continue go to work, at least for other 5-6 years and most colleagues are my age or above. How should we isolate? And then everyone would protest because he is not allowed to visit his parents/grandparents and parents/grandparents will protest because they are not allowed to see their children. The whole idea is fine for nursing home residents, i.e. avoid contact to shield them until they get the vaccine, but shielding millions of over 60 which still go to work each day is unrealistic.

    Notable Coronavirus Victims

    It is sad, expecially for his family. But how many Americans his age or less (absolute number, not percentages) have lost their lives mainly because their President convinced them there was no danger at all? Trying to ridicule the problem is an approach that simply does not work. Everyone could be in danger and statistics won't give your life back. COVID is the kind of stupid virus that fails to kill Saleh Ajeery or Meshulam Soloveitchik and yet kills this guy with no underlying conditions. Vehiculating the message it is just a flu is dangerous (and that's what a big part of GOP did during the past months). You push people not to take precautions and it can ruin their lives. I never missed a day at work since March, I got all possible precautions and never got infected, even using public transport extensively. If everyone had followed rules this would have been a much smaller problem, it is horrible that US government at some point was ouright ridiculing the whole thing. Letlow was a moderate in this sense and should not be derided after death. Whereas average Hermain Cain acted like an utter cunt and lot of GOPs followed his example.

    Cynical but true. US set a new low, narcissistic capitalism at top, always think those who will die are "necessary deaths" or even undesirable people. According to that Eric Trump dork, Americans who died of COVID are "virtually nothing". The virus showed the real face of this Republican scum who puts economy above all, not even understanding that economy will die if the pandemic is not solved before.
