0.039% of the US population has died from COVID-19 to date. When my Captain makes a math error by a factor of 10, you are correct...I am that guy in the back of the plane thinking the pilots are idiots. You better believe it. I will get off the plane quicker than you can say “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”.

my bad on the math. But my point stands that your opinions fly in the face of what basically every appropriate expert is recommending. This perverse attitude will only make this thing last longer, cause more deaths and other health complications, and hurt the economy to a greater degree.

That's a bold, and unequivocally false statement.
There is a level of personal responsibility required by everyone - including those who are most at risk. If everyone who is elderly, has pre-existing health conditions, etc. would stay home - the numbers of hospitalizations and deaths would fall off a cliff. That would be much simpler and far more effective than attempting to mandate everyone wear a mask in public and mandating businesses remain partially closed.

Look, I was told there would be no math. But even a dumb pilot like me can see on a chart the cases and positivity rate rising at an alarming rate. I can also read the words of and in the case of today listen to the sworn testimony of the nations premier health experts. So I think I’ll go with what those guys and gals say. No offense, I’m sure it’s lovely in whatever universe it is that you’re in.
