After working in health care most of my life, this whole thing is way overblown. Everyone gets sick. Everyone dies. .


I wonder how you would feel if you were suddenly faced with the prospect that most people in your age bracket will be dying in a few days or weeks

Well said. For those of us over 70 this is a serious concern. I may die anyway, but I don't plan on dying this year. And I certainly wouldn't want to die laying in a bed gasping for air until there was no hope. For some of those making those comments, I would ask if they mean their parents as well?
