1. Hospitals were most certainly overwhelmed.
2. This always seemed cautionary to me. We know this is a vector for other viruses.It makes sense to sanitize until you have a better understanding.
3. I think that's a bit of an exaggeration, but thank goodness the models that made predictions based on no action taken didn't come to fruition. We lost in the US alone a half million people and counting. It could have been worse, but it should have been better.
4. Leadership whiffed big here at the beginning with the whole lying to save PPE for health professionals thing, but they admitted that. As for restaurant protocols that was more or less min-maxing for the situation. Ideally just don't go out to eat, but if that's not a sacrifice you want to make, or you're adamant about supporting a restaurant by in-person dining, then filter as much of your and other's respiration as possible.
And I wasn't frantically following anyone - it seemed like sense to me. A novel virus is/was spreading that's potentially dangerous: wear a mask, wash your hands, avoid contact with people - do these things to the best of your ability for both your own and the community's safety. I live in Arizona, so believe me when I tell you the things I did were of my own volition.
Thanks for expounding.
- nickthemagicman 6y agoAll of your expounding doesn't avoid the fact that...they were wrong. 1. Would love to see a source on this from a reliable legitimate news source. They were wrong. Texas was at less than 15% vaccination a few weeks ago..and Abbot opened the state up fully. No hospital overflow. Did they reach natural herd immunity? 2. They were wrong. 3. They were wrong. 4. They were wrong. Read all about it. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7447267/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7447267/ Youre digging your heels with hand wavy non science.
