No, not me but, I've run in to more than a few dolts who believe either of two things (maybe both?):
1. The COVID Pandemic is a World Wide Conspiracy, for all kinds of wild reasons. Take your pick. The MSM is covering for "them".
2. And otherwise, let's get back to work. Not THAT many people have died, or will die. COVID is not as bad as the yearly "flu". The whole thing is overblown.
(1) Hmmmm, , , , , so, , , , , I was pretty sure it was in fact a World Wide Conspiracy but, I don't have a clue as to by whom or for what? But, God Damn It, it is a Conspiracy none-the-less!! Just has to be, I knew that they were out to get me! LOL. LOL
(2) Well, ya, , , , perhaps as of now not that many people have died but, the yearly "flu" thingy only kills about .1% of those infected (1 out of 1000). BUT, this COVID thingy is on track to a death rate of 4.7% (47 out of a thousand!!!!)! Who do you know that you can just plain "do without"?
My "cousin" is doctor in LI, NY, who's practice is affiliated with a hospital in west Nassau county. I sent him a text Friday night to check on him and and the situation....... his response
"It's a war zone.... a literal warzone!"........
"Damn, is it as bad as what you see on tv?"......
"Much worse than on TV." (he was staying at a hotel because he's been working in ICU this week working non-stop and doesnt want to potentially bring it home to his family)
