Healthy young people are dying of this in significant-enough numbers to warrant significant caution. Worse than that, healthy people in my age group (20-44) are being hospitalized at a rate of 20% in Italy and S. Korea. My local hospitals are already at capacity, so I'd basically be killing an old person with carelessness if I had to take a ventilator. And even if I were in the majority of infected cases that don't need to be hospitalized, I really don't want to suffer the extremely lovely symptoms that a lot of "mild" cases have had to deal with: high fever, aches, chills, waking cough, etc. possibly for weeks. Seriously, gently caress all of that.

The amount of effort I'm putting into prevention is really low, I spend more time per week brushing and flossing my teeth. So go ahead and explain to me why an extra 10 minutes of sanitation and prevention effort per grocery trip is ridiculous

That "20-44" stat is the biggest red herring. The distribution is something like "16% 40-44 4% 20-40" otherwise they would have used equal intervals

that's not how percentages work

but agreed that 20-44 is a massive range. i do get a bit skeptical when someone tries to make noise about "young people are affected too" and then the example they use as a "young person" is like, 53.

Fair enough, if you work in a hospital you're certainly better informed than I am. I was going off this article for the record:

https://www.caltech.edu/about/news/...94dvQLn8Ra-KxrM

NHS have been telling people sick at home who’re pretty sure they’ve got COVID that they only need to quarantine for a week from first becoming ill if you live alone / 2 weeks for a household.

Longer infectious period means that I’ve been at great risk of infecting people when I’ve visited the shop last week. Ideal.

if you have 16% of group a being sick, and 4% of group b being sick, when you put them together you get an overall percentage sick that's somewhere between 4 and 16.

Everything is hosed, why are you surprised?
My shopping said 3 weeks so I ditched it.

When Amazon stuff shows many weeks it's usually because it's some Chinese seller, but currently it's because they are prioritizing "important" stuff, reorganising fulfillment centers etc
There's good chance it wouldn't even arrive on 23rd April

I give zero fucks. Even 1% is too high to gently caress around with. Getting hospitalized in a car accident is probably rarer than that, but I'm still going to wear a seat belt.

People in that age range all had about the same case fatality rate when broken up into 10-year segments in various studies coming out of S. Korea and China; it wouldn't be surprising if the hospitalization and ICU rates were also similar across that age range.
