Poll of the Day > I hope that this virus fad/hysteria continues for a good while

(+) Yeah! (+)

Even though this virus stuff is merely just media fear mongering, I am happy that it has enabled me to work from the comfort of my own home. I could get used to this and the general overall mellowness in my area too. Things will really be nice after I pick up my preorder of Animal Crossing from Best Buy!

Its estimated that 1 in 6 people that contract covid-19 require hospitalization. A lot of those people will need ventilators and we dont have anywhere near enough for that kind influx of patients into the healthcare system.

In Italy theyre literally picking and choosing who lives and who dies because they cant give everyone a ventilator, and we are on course to end up in the exact same situation here unless people take this seriously. Maybe you dont know anyone that is immunocompromised, over 50, has diabetes, heart disease, or any other health conditions, but many folks do and would rather not see their lives be put in jeopardy over the next couple months.

i personally hope this ends as soon as possible. Id rather not put everyone out of work and cripple the economy just to enjoy muh escapism but you do you, brotha.

Nah. It should end quickly because it's already getting boring.

I seriously dont understand why anyone would still shop at Best Buy.

i, too, want this pandemic that's ravaging the world, closing businesses, and making people die, to continue on, because i am an asshole who called this a fad.

did i miss anything?
