How can we go 18 months without everyone getting it eventually, gently caress

If everyone gets it over a period of 18 months, it doesn't strain the hospitals as much as everyone getting it in a period of 3 months, and less people die. Also, doctors become somewhat more experienced, PPE is somewhat more available, and as more people recover it becomes harder for the virus to spread (because those people are no longer vectors, the 'herd immunity' strategy).

But yes: most people will indeed get Coronavirus. Merkel wasn't joking when she said 60-80% Germans are going to get this, that's true everywhere. If you need solace, consider the majority of those who get it don't end up hospitalized, and there's no proven indication of reinfection. That said, our failure to prepare or properly handle this will indeed kill millions if not tens of millions, either of Coronavirus, or due to hospitals too strained to address non-coronavirus complications.

Yeah, I mean, I understand all that but it’s just hard to believe that over a year from now we will still have six months to go before everyone has had it. I’ve been trying to do my best on social distancing but I just assume I’m going to get it going to the grocery store every couple weeks or taking a walk around my neighborhood.

No one here knows the difference between essential and non essential because it changes 15 times a day from 15 different authorities on it. The only consistency with the fines is that they almost exclusively get handed out in areas where white people don't live.

As it currently stands our laws as communicated say something like getting out of the house to do something like teaching someone you are housebound with to drive would very easily come under the mental health trips to go outside. poo poo, you can go to the park and meet your personal trainer to do some lunges and poo poo with the 50 other people doing exactly.

The way to beat something like Covid is to basically take everyone's temperature anytime they come out in public and then isolate and test anyone who shows above 100. If you test positive then anyone who's had contact with you in the last 14 days gets a two week quarantine.

It's simple to explain but extremely difficult to pull off and impossible now that Covid is basically everywhere.

But I still ask that you please, please forgive me.

a long time ago my wife went through seminary. she wasn’t going to be a pastor but most of the other students were. something the pastors had to do was be on staff in a hospital for a while. they often were with patients and they all had stories of filling in, faking outright, the death rights of other denominations and religions. because a person is dying and no one else is there.

this is not a uncommon thing clergy face in hospitals or in the military.

I’m telling you that to tell you this. if you need forgiveness anyone is capable of giving it.

and giving it is good praxis.

Oh yeah, there is an education exception too. Thankfully there are some not poo poo politicians here who are taking up the fight about it but it's still stupid and completely the fault of lovely laws that have been pushed through and unevenly enforced.

We're not the USA and things aren't out of control. What we do have is looking like 6+ months of this to stop poo poo going wild and people can't put their life on hold that long. In fact taking a small controlled risk like this which allows you to feel something of a sense of normalcy should be encouraged.

So parties out for ages but getting on with things as best as you can shouldn't get your huge fines.

I don't know what Victoria is like, but of all the things one can do to restore normalcy, doing things that include a higher risk for emergency treatment should be very low on the list i.m.o.
Maybe I am missing some cultural knowledge and delaying getting your drivers license with 6 months is really bad over there?
