Good question. I have another group of concerned Karen's that I keep up with just to keep my finger on the pulse of the hysteria. Someone started linking plandemic to them and they predictably chimped out. One of them made the statement that "every one of us knows someone fighting covid". It came as a genuine surprise to a number of them that this was wrong. They get tunnel vision in their own little patch of the world and don't realize that most of the US has very few cases. Probably most of the world.
I'm an essential worker. I work for a pretty big company. Not only do I not know anyone infected, but no one in my company has been infected and a lot of us who travel to sensitive areas get tests regardless of not showing any symptoms. Then the person tried to expand it to doctors etc and I was like no, actually the 2 people I know personally in the medical field have been furloughed or had their hours cut.
Anyway. Not at all trying to make a case that it's fake like I think booze is. Just want to point out that outside of the Hotspots it's another nothingburger.
Also booze why the fuck can't we change our answers? What if you convince someone that they are really a no?
Maybe you just don't have a very large social circle.
I knew one person directly and a second one that passed away at age 30 is family of my cleaning lady.
We have over 9000 deaths on a population of 11 million. I've you've dealt with over 12.000 people, you are statistically likely to know at least 1 of the people that died.
12.000 people is not a large number.
The US is still early in the COVID thing I think. Don't worry, the chances of you or someone you care about getting "just a flu" are still pretty solid.
