talked to my mom and aunt on the phone today when i was going out to get groceries, they both think this whole thing is overblown and it'll be fine and aren't really doing anything special, they were coming home from my sisters baby shower

they both work in nursing homes and my sister is a nurse

Dunno what this place is but I'm guessing that translates to 11-12 bucks an hour instead of 8-9 for most of their employees? Why not just pay that to begin with?

More like starting around 11-12 so closer to 14-15 they were already having trouble finding people before this.

The number of infected in USA is going crazy, like a rocket to the moon, but the number of death is tame. Either the healthcare system is some sort of ablative armour that is slowing down the impact or theres some serius underreporting... or maybe the people that is gonna die is critical just now, but not dead yet.

Either way the numbers are not that bad, considering the large number of people infected. Could also be that other than the big large cities the patients are spread all around the territory, I think this will also help slow the "hospital collapse effect" somehow.

most hospitals are not overwhelemed yet, give it a few days

How do I convince a family member it's not worth it to go to the beach even if social distancing is maintained?

Like this person is well aware of the virus and it's risks, and not a chud by any stretch...theyre even a fan of Bernie! But their response to my panic is literally "you need to get out of the house more."

I told them anybody going to the beach/popular hiking trails just encourages more people to do the same, regardless of the precautions you personally take. I told them about the lady I saw crossing caution tape to put her kid on the playground and they were like "she's just putting her own child at risk."

And now they're furious with me for calling them out.

How the gently caress are we this hypernormalized?
