Well, I understand the argument: bankrupting x% of the people to save y%. My own sister's business has suffered badly. But our father died from complications, and her mother in law directly.
So she's got her sense of proportion correct. She knows as well as anyone that a life being destroyed isn't the same thing as financial suffering and inconvenience.
People don't like to make arguments anymore without being hyperbolic.
I'm among a handful of us on here who lost a close family member and due to the restrictions here in California I wasn't able to be there when my loved one passed away and the funeral. It ripped apart the family. I don't know many people personally who've gotten covid and the ones who have, recovered and are back to normal now. I'm not anti-vax or believe it's a hoax, I just don't believe in the lockdowns and mandates...

For the first time in my life, I almost felt sorry for small local politicians, having to navigate doing too little vs too much and trying to please as many constituents as possible.

We need a leader to get behind, who will lead, and we have nothing.

Doctor says ERs overwhelmed with people overdosing on livestock drug ivermectin to treat COVID-19
A rural Oklahoma doctor says emergency rooms in the southeastern part of the state are overwhelmed with patients who ingested an antiparasitic drug intended for livestock to treat COVID-19, according to local KFOR.
I'm an asshole who wants numbers. So I had to look.

I'm not disputing this is a problem. Poison Control says calls have went up 235%, to 400+.
They reported 11 cases from Oklahoma since May.

Maybe it isn't required that the hospital call poison control though. Splinty @Splinty , do they have to notify poison control?
