Covid19 isn’t changing my life in any appreciable way beyond work implementing some policy changes but it’s weird to be deadset on hand waving away the potential risks

Literally not one single person itt is doing that.

We aren’t all “hosed” the mortality rate of this thing is almost identical to every other strain of influenza, the hysteria surrounding this whole thing is completely unwarranted.

If you think "the hysteria surrounding this whole thing is completely unwarranted" = "hand waving away the potential risks" then you are choosing to start a fight that doesn't exist.

We do health insurance too and often recruit actuaries from that line of work because they have a better understanding of new drug demand and pricing. hth 🙂

That makes sense. The pricing for drugs like “novaccineyet” usually require a pretty high level skillset

There is no unwarranted hysteria, meaning if you're against the current measures you're absolutely "hand waving away the potential risks".
The infection rate absolutely has to remain within the capacity to deal with it, or the mortality rate is closer to 20% than 2%.

And that's literally the opinion of the CDC, not someone choosing their bingo numbers by what insurance policies are doing or whatever the gently caress tertiary metric someone is comforting themselves with.

"the hysteria is unwarranted" does not mean "I'm against the current safety measures." Khablam, stop loving lying just to pick fights.

I also like to watch Formula 1 and am excited for it to start again. Just finished DTS which is probably amping my hype. Very interested to see how the Tracing Point runs, if McLaren can keep making progress, if Renault still sucks, if Williams can not come in last, ect. The mid-field should be fun to watch. However, I'm sure the excitement will subside once the cameras just show Bottas 3 seconds behind Hamilton for the whole race after Sharl and Vettel collide on turn 1.
