Default Soaring Contest and Coronavirus

Real life can not be put on hold indefinitely. Maybe folks who are independantly wealthy or who work for the government can stay on vacation indefinitely. But the vast majority of us need to work and get our businesses back in order!

If you feel at risk, then stay the heck home. If you have a weakened immune system or are elderly, or infirmed, then it is your responsibility to take whatever precautions you need to take. I for one can not put my business on hold for another six months because others are worried about becoming infected. My first responsibility is to my family, not yours. If I stay locked down I will have no business to return to, I will be added to the ranks of the unemployed, and I am sure those of you who think I should self quarantine are NOT going to be mailing me checks to cover my bills!

Get used to this virus, its not going away and if your putting your hope in an effective vaccine, good luck! Don’t have one for the common cold yet, or aids, or many other viral strains that are plagueing us. And the efficacy of the annual flu shot produced every year sucks. 40,000 died last year alone due to the common flu.
