There isn't a herd immunity yet
I warned everyone here
You have it wrong though. Patients get admitted to ICU based on survival chances: if 80 yo has better chances than 30 yo he’ll get a place
Don't be bitter user. I care for you guys even tho you are too loud and noisy people. Stay save user.
so 2 countries with socialized medicaine (Italy and China) have failed to mitigate the disease, so therefore we should go to socialized medicine too?

Itll only be the old in places like NYC or Seattle.
This is how I feel. My wife is really worried about her parents and was going to send them her respirator. I thought she was crazy and said that our family comes first and we need to be around to protect our kids. Our parents had their good times and I honour them and would do almost anything for them, but I certainly wouldn’t die for them or risk my family’s well being. I wouldn’t expect my kids to do that for me, it’s not the point of having kids and older generations must always protect the younger generations, even if that means giving up medical care.
It sounds cold but it is a reality. To be honest, I’m so concerned about my family that I can’t even find much time to worry about my parents or anyone else. I do have a strong concern for protecting our community and country in general, which means self-isolating to protect our old folks.
god I can't wait for the dead mutts
it will be glorious
There are a limited number of tests and only the seriously ill will get tested over here so we know who to prioritize. It's far better then just blowing through all your tests because socialized medicine will pay to check little Timmy's cold because he's equally entitled to those tests as the dying.
Turns out putting a cost on important things is a great way to make sure only the genuinely needy consume those important things.
I hope you'll volunteer to commit suicide at an appropriate age. And make sure you kill your parents.
Italy has more ICU beds than the USA. Same thing will happen here, and your private health insurance won't save you.
