Actually, many people have pointed out this will be an issue going forward. There are stats that show how much suicide rises in a time of big unemployment. When you have lost everything, suicide does happen.

 

Tons of people were laid off and found a way to not off themselves. That's a personal problem. Many more are also dying from the virus.. This guy's just making it all about him.

None of us know what might plunge another into despair. Of course , it’s all personal. The virus is a personal thing too. Many will have no symptoms, some will have a mild cold or cough, others will get extremely sick for a time, and others will ultimately succumb to it. Completely depending on individual health and genetics, and therefore personal. Everyone will be exposed to it eventually, like the common cold or influenza.

I am not, but then again I don’t do twitter or other social media. Many do though, and I’d expect this kind of thing to become more common as things go on.

Me neither. Stupid people yelling on Twitter will probably become more common, lol. That's pretty much all Twitter has been good for.

it is pretty well proven that in times of economic downturns, the suicide rate rises. don't like it all you want, doesn't change facts.

More common?

 

That's pretty much most of what Twitter has been since it started.  People screaming at each other, and celebrities endorsing products

I haven't argued that at all. Just pointing out a loser who uses his "friend's" suicide to draw attention to himself.

 

I guess you like that?

 

On the flip side, its like someone's grandmother dying and then they get on Twitter to yell "***** you!" at people who want to open back up.

Yeah, this is America. We can max it out if we work together.

People are killing themselves, because they're laid off, or people are not returning to work, because they make more on unemployment.  Peddle whichever narrative fits your unfounded arguments.  Classic have it both ways tactic.

Don't forget: while blaming others for your "friend's" suicide.

She keeps asking about screening, but I don’t think business will be screening nearly the amount that some people think. It’s just not a realistic proposition. Perhaps waivers will need to be signed for gyms, etc. A temperature screening is probably about it. We’re not going to be able to test people on the spot to enter establishments etc. 

I'm all for states opening their economies up but businesses do have to exercise responsibility.  If that means they have to have an attendant out front taking a temperature or making sure each customer sanitizes hands, or maximum occupancy is 50% or whatever, that's the cost of being able to open your business.  It's better than having zero business.  I don't think business should be under the illusion that they just get to open the doors like it's January 2020 with zero f's given.

 

TBH, I don't know how places like gyms and bars are going to pull it off.

Fox's new shtick is find one person to interview who agrees with their ridiculous narrative.

Temperature screening is going to accomplish about zilch. Unless some idiot is out there trying to spread the disease, it just blocks that guy. With so many asymptomatic people out there, temp screening is a waste of time. 

 

I can't wait to go back to my gym and I'll be one of the first people back when it opens, but I'll only be safe by looking out for myself and even then I might not be safe from Covid-19.

Oh, I agree on the temperature screening. It’s like the TSA screening implemented after 9/11. Strictly for show. And also agreed on the gym deal along with other things. Nothing is really going to be all that safe from covid 19. Eventually we will all know individually if we are very  susceptible to it, kind of like a major food allergy. We will know our status and hopefully there will soon be highly effective treatments for those who would have an extremely negative reaction to it.
