This dude is an idiot.
Totally remember the chicken pox parties, lol. My parents were in that group, we got a kid with chicken pox send yours over to get it now too. Crazy.
he thinks the virus is in every corner of our country but I guess he doesn't know about rural areas that have been lucky and smart so far.
if one wants to look at what it will be like eith no lockdowns just look at Sweden . All things considered its death rate is not that bad
more mixed signals. we were told the lockdowns were to avoid hospital overloads not stop all deaths .
