> Millions of people are going to die.
Maybe. So far only a few thousand have died so how about toning down the fearmongering hysteria? Also, 60 million people die every year. Every single year with or without the pandemic. Actually, it's more likely we'll have a lower death total around the world as a result of this pandemic as quarantine has prevented people from dying in car crashes, other diseases, etc.
> It's very likely some of your friends and family will be in that number.
No. It's very unlikely even in your worst case scenario. Unless you have the loosest definition of "friends".
> The world we get out of this is going to be different and it's going to be a worse one for almost everyone.
The world isn't going to be different. People are still going to eat, sleep, go to work, etc. Life will go on. Just like it did after the spanish flu, ww2, vietnam war, iraq wars, 9/11, etc.
> Just surviving will be a miracle enough.
Oh god. Stop watching the news. Unless you are paid to spread lies and fear, you aren't benefiting one bit from the hysteria. It doesn't help you, the toxic hysteria only hurts you.
