wow his parents clearly failed in creating a human being with actual critical thinking skills. But I'd bet good money they'll try to sue someone for his stupidity...and that his 'friends' who were at that party won't change their idiotic behaviors at all as a result, they'll make up some deluded excuse as to why this happened to this guy.

How can someone see all of the numbers on the news and think this is a hoax?

that's too bad that they all went in to a classroom to do an online course. that's the point of online. everyone is isolated, but maybe because this was a rural area the teachers had no internet access at home.

fullmahina, that's so sad - hopefully there's a lesson in there that others can finally see: schools are not safe yet

i can't find it online right now but my ex husband just showed me something on twitter that was something to the effect of "covid: a play in four acts".
first frame is from a guy's facebook on apr 28 saying that covid is a hoax. 2nd frame is a the guy posting a picture from a water park for memorial day weekend. 3rd frame is his FB post from july 2 with the guy saying "this covid things sucks. can't breathe very well." 4th frame is same guy's obituary page on july 4.
and it's not a fake. someone put it together from his FB posts (well, for the first 3 posts anyway).

finreporter, It is so sad we have so many people not "getting it." Read an article about some older people are not worrying about it and their kids in their 40's and 50's are upset. One reason given is they listen to conservative news so don't take it seriously.

I read a story, can't find it again about someone had a party for about two dozen people in North Carolina and between the people from the party that got infected and the people they infected 41 people have the virus including three elderly people.

wow. such selfish people! if only this virus stuck to darwinian processes. then i wouldn't care if those people wanted to all die together. have at it. but they unfortunately affect those who are innocent and didn't stupidly ask for this the way they have.

I saw my friend's daughter in law (mid 20s)this evening to trim her bangs. They are in my safe circle, she is very careful.
She told me her age group is done with this, they are getting back to living their lives.

The unfortunate thing is their “over it” and back to living their lives will kill others and potentially themselves. I am shocked at the level of selfishness.

I went to a WW virtual meeting this morning. An elderly couple talked about how well they did at the FOUR birthday parties they attended this past week.
Sigh...I just can't anymore.
We're still rocking our "SAVE YOURSELF" mode and will continue for the foreseeable future.

How can someone see all of the numbers on the news and think this is a hoax? If you only get your "news" from on particular cable channel and not a variety of sources you will be misinformed. You will be told Covid-19 is just like the flu. You will be told it will be gone by the summer. You will be told the Covid-19 spike is only due to more testing. You will be told we do more testing than any country in the world. You will be told “It’s going to disappear. One day it’s like a miracle—it will disappear.” You will be told,“Coronavirus numbers are looking MUCH better, going down almost everywhere,” and cases are “coming way down.” You will be told 99% of Covid-19 cases are harmless. That is why some think it's a hoax. 1984: “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
