Last September, I got a flu shot. Same as I've done every year since 1995, when a bout with influenza type "A" kicked my ass for three months and caused me to miss the only work day in 20 years due to illness(yeah, every year or so I get a little chest cold that lasts two days and that's it). So I get my shot, and around the middle of January one of my colleagues ends up in the hospital on a respirator(no flu shot and I'm saying, damn, I'm glad I got that shot!) Anyhow, he pulls through and I get blindsided by something that causes me to miss 7 days of work out of the next 21. COVID19? I don't know, but its a serious coincidence(I'm not the only one that got sick either) The point is, no one knew about COVID19 then, and as we got more information and found out how virulent(for lack of a better word)this bastard is, we adjusted our behavior. When the Fauchi says covering your face won't do any good, I didn't cover my face. When the Fauchi says wearing a mask can make you safer, I wear a damn mask. When they think it's so serious that they turn off the country and tell me to keep my happy ass at home for 2 months, I keep my happy ass at home for 2 months. I am not crunching numbers, scientists and health care people are doing that and making recommendations. Trump is right, we can't lock down the economy for 2 years and there are parts of this country that haven't even been hit that could go back to work.
One last point. You like to put that "cool" post Icon in the title of these morbid little death clocks you provide. You know, the little smiley, smiling and wearing sunglasses? What's the point of that? Do you think 70,000 dead Americans is "cool"? Do you think your "side" is winning? Most of all, do you think that you are somehow immune from this because you hate Trump? Wow, talk about unscientific! But maybe you could stop that practice for a little while at least. I lost my sister to this virus last week, so it is a bit personal. I hope doesn't become personal to you.
