RE: To all the Armchair Epidemiologists

Thank you. Also overlooked is the fact that people get sick all the time, from illnesses not related to the coronavirus. An overwhelmed healthcare system won't be able to handle these 'usual' events. Have a car accident? Better not, because the hospital can't handle it. Appendicitis? Hope not. Because the hospital can't handle it. Stroke? Heart attack? Food poisoning. Etc. etc., etc. People who like to silo disaster and imagine they can be immune to its consequence are really, really short sighted.
