Yes it is. We teach people being fat/unhealthy is beautiful and acceptable. They then pass it onto their children and others.

One more observation:

If the total mortality in the U.S. from COVID-19 in this calendar year is 250,000 people ... and we assume that none of those 250,000 would have died otherwise ... then the number of deaths per 100,000 people in the U.S. in 2020 will increase from about 725 to about 800.

No opinion, just an observation.

I agree it’s totally unrelated, yet you felt the need to post it . I wonder why ( not really)

One more observation:

If we lose $2 Trillion from our GDP (the stimulus bill), we lose approximately $6,000 per person.

If that is a criticism of Trump, let me point out that NY state has about 6% of the population in the country and about 45% of the tested positives. That would suggest that the only thing Cuomo is leading the country in is ineptitude.

So 9/11 accounted for approximately 1 more death per 100k and another 1-2 per 100k if you count deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan?

I'm curious if anyone else things that we might end up trending this way?

Do you think that what is going to happen is that major cities (such as NYC, Miami, LA, Vegas, Chicago, etc.) that show high signs of the virus will be put into lockdown with no in/out travel as a way to contain the virus? Then more rural areas and areas that have shown small numbers will be able to re-open businesses, resume working, etc?

I am genuinely asking because, in theory, it seems like an option that COULD work in containing the spread of the virus outside of those large, infected areas.

Those major cities, for the most part, are the hubs of business.

Some rural stuff can get on without the big city slickers, but not most.

In a pandemic that's what happens.

Go home and stay home. Get healthy and move on.

The 5% of the population that has to worry is #@#@#@#@ed. Stay home if you are in the 5% (which I doubt a lot of people on the board here fall into this category).
