You can't pick strawberries over zoom, but it's pretty easy to distance yourself from others on a farm. And let's face it, if you have the physical fortitude for farm work, you aren't at risk from coronavirus.
- creaghpatr 7y ago*you aren't risk for dying of coronavirus, but still at risk for spreading it.
- Mikeb85 7y agoNo my statement stands. If you spread it, by definition others are at risk, not you. You can't just make up new language semantics.

- munk-a 7y ago> you aren't at risk from coronavirus We don't have sufficient information to determine this definitively - some of the folks that have "recovered" have had serious respiratory complications. Also, just because the farm worker is alright is their mother fine too? What about the rest of their family? Are they going to be treated in a wonderful modern hospital or is a doctor going to send them home to be cared for by their family? If they don't have insurance any medical costs they take own will come completely out of their own pocket.
- Mikeb85 7y agoThere's nearly a million cases worldwide. There's enough data. The death rate between 19 and 39 years of age is 0.2%. The death rate from 40-49% is 0.4%. And that's the death rate only taking into account confirmed cases (by contrast, seasonal flu death rates are used by estimating total infections). I know in Canada lots of people with all the symptoms aren't getting tested. Also, the more testing is done in various countries, the lower the death rate. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-sex-demographics/ https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-se...
