Yes, it does. Just so we all remember that many, or most even, with comorbidities might have well lived into their eighties or (fewer) possibly nineties had they not caught this terrible virus. Some maybe robbed of a couple months, many more robbed of many years or possibly decades.

Yes it is nature's way. But we should be taking any measures possible to mitigate the loss of life.

A route that I am comfortable is being charted as well as possible by our esteemed President.

Actually, respectfully, no we should not be taking any measure possible. In this country every day ,loss of life is weighed against factors. For example, it is a given a certain amount of people will get cancer and die every year just from pumping gasoline into their vehicles (the list very long) . Risks are part of everyday life. Many Americans aren’t comfortable literally shutting down the economy because it MIGHT save a life. Crazy stuff 😄



Yeah, I think there was this study back in the 70's that provided limited data that a 55 MPH speed limit, when enforced and obeyed saved lives.


But dang were people PO'd about it.

So it's back to 70+ on the fwy in most places.
