Yeah so, new strategy from the White House regarding Covid-19. Herd Immunity! This is the idea that if enough people get the virus that they will become immune and then the virus will stop spreading.
What do we know, or think we know, in this regard.
Well, we don’t know if once you get the virus you are immune and can’t get it again. In fact, there are reports that at least one person has gotten it a second time.
There are figures on the death rate from this virus. It’s at between 2-3%. You can look it up and do some math, but for this idea to work, and we don’t know if it would, between 2 and 3 million people would die.
The White House strategy is to slow down testing, let the virus spread quicker, and we’ll reach herd immunity sooner.
This is nuts.
Just to be clear.
This is nuts.
Trump wants to kill as many Americans as possible as quickly as possible. The number would be half of what Hitler exterminated in Germany.
That’s the league we are talking.
Then there’s the logistics problems. What about the already over burdened hospitals? Where are we going to put the bodies? Etc.
Hey, I got it. Put them in the mail. Send them to The White House.
OMG. Gag me with a pitchfork.

PS Slightly foggy, slightly blurry.
But not raining!
Sweden did herd immunity so well….
Sarcasm? Do I denote sarcasm? Yes, yes I do.
Really difficult to look forward to anything!
If he gets rid of our generation, no need for Social Security and Medicare!
I hope with the election of someone other than Trump, Congress considers limiting the powers of the Presidency.
Rise of the fourth Reich !
