Good question. We kill something like 50,000 Americans every year on our highways....eyt we still choose to drive and not ban private driving....why? The answer is that in modern society, we accept a certain level of mortality in order to enjoy our comforts and level of society. Otherwise, we'd ban driving, which not only kills more Americans, it kills those mostly in the prime of their lives.A few elderly? How many have to die before it can no longer be called "a few."
From the numbers I've seen, I am much less afraid of being exposed to the bug than I am of the prospect of social disruption that is the wake of attempts to deal with the bug. Epidemics of infectious disease are not only possible but inevitable for herd animals. If we figure one out, mother nature will cook up something new for us to deal with sooner or later. It isn't preventable and some of us will fall to these onslaughts and it will be no one's fault whether or not we maintain our human dignity through it or do what we are doing now.
There was an article in today's Augusta paper about one couple facing the same thing you are. They decided to go ahead and have a private ceremony so they could be married but delay a formal ceremony and reception until August.I'm getting married in 9 weeks and this whole 8 weeks of "no more than 50 people in a confined space" thing has my girl on the verge of a damn nervous breakdown. I hope this shxx passes soon cause it's already affecting those who arent sick!!!
I have mixed feelings about this. A part of me says that sports are not the primary reason for college and seniors should move into adulthood. The other part of me would love to see Banks back for another season.FWIW, the NCAA is reportedly leaning against approving an extra year for SR of winter sports.
