I would remind you that tens of thousands of elderly die each year from viruses, pneumonia and other diseases that are fatal due to their age and infirmity......well except over the last year or so when all these deaths miraculously disappeared. Same for younger people with co-morbidities. In fact, the virus is less deadly to those under age 65 than all those other diseases. And yet we don't shut down the economy and force healthy people to wear masks everywhere they go. But you've made my point exactly. Instead of harming the lives and livelihood of all Americans we should focus like a laser beam on the elderly and those with co-morbidities and let the rest of us go about lives and get the economy back on track......something that was going to happen with Trump as President....now not so much.
There is no doubt that the Wuhan virus is more deadly for the elderly and those with co-morbidities because it is a respiratory illness. So lets focus on protecting them and drop all the other nonsense. But when your real goal is something other than protecting people then you don't follow the science, you follow the ideology or politics. For Democrat Governors of failed states like CA, IL, NY, etc. this is an excuse to act like a dictator in the hopes they can get the Federal government to bail them out from their fiscal irresponsibility. That should never happen....period. They made their bed and there is no reason they should be bailed out.
