With a 1,000 deaths per day in the NY metro area (during the height of the pandemic) and family & friends dying faster than you can reconcile with; its hard to characterize this as "bullshit". Covid killed these poor people who would be alive today in the absence of CV19. People live long and productive lives with a variety of common health issues that are now termed "co-morbidity".
Just sayin'.
And those with a "Variety" of health problems needed to stay home, not the whole damn country! There are a lot of older people who succumb to the flu every year, should we shut the country down every flu season?
Those with problems need to use their heads and avoid certain things and practice good hygiene while the rest of the country can move ahead and keep running. There are lots of ways this could have been handled.
There was one reason and only one reason that the country was shut down and anyone who doesn't recognize it is a fool.
