Two things: Yes, there is a flu vaccine. Yet it still killed 60,000 people in a recent year. When we do have a C19 vaccine, it won't be a magic bullet. There are some who believe that C19 has mutations and different strains.

Setting aside how lethal C19 is or isn't, my larger point is simply that none of us knew what that barber or massage therapist had prior to all this. For all we knew, they could've had something worse than C19. Take precautions. Be smart about how you do things. But for goodness sake, what...

I am looking at the facts, and they seem to be pointing to this virus having a mortality rate pretty much in line with a bad flu (I know that will get some people's dander up using that word), and that's with having a flu vaccine. Again, this is fluid, so that could change. IF that stays the...

Because people were acting off of the information they had at that time, some of it not so good or accurate. This has been very fluid. We know more now. Still incomplete, but we know more.

Of course you consult with health experts, but then you have to make a decision based on all the information you have. Just like in business. You consult with lawyers, but then you have to make a business decision.

Yep. There will be increased cases. But, if we don't overrun the hospitals, and most cases are either asymptomatic, mild, or recovered from without hospitalization, then we're OK. I also don't get some people saying things like, "I don't see how a massage therapist, etc. can safely do...

Exactly. It's hard for me to understand why so many can't grasp this.

Your comments on college football are all very sensible. Regarding Singapore: How many of the cases have resulted in hospitalization? Do they have any data for that?

This is a silly response.

You are right. The economy will NOT come back with so many people choosing to not participate, and that will be the case for a while. Many people have been shell-shocked by this and now have something akin to PTSD. The psychological effects are huge.

This is a very smart and cool move.

That’s the spirit!

With their balance sheets, I would think if I held for say 5 years, I’d be good.

Thanks

What about buying shares of Exxon or BP right now? Seems like they are at good values right now, especially if you are willing to hold for a decent amount of time.

American ingenuity and ability to adapt to this has been so impressive.

Because there are differing opinions? Tolerance: It only goes one way. I see it as intelligent people having an open discussion via message board.

You’re right, this virus is no joke....for certain people. That’s always the case. It’s also the case that many, many more people have mild cases, and many people are totally asymptomatic. The overwhelming majority get it and recover. Think about the concerts and ballgames you’ve been to...

We had one in our front yard here close to Bobby Jones golf course 2 days ago. That was pretty surprising.

Clearly they need more funding. An 11.1 billion dollar budget just isn’t enough. Sadly, there will be some who seriously claim it’s due to lack of funding.
