> Funny, I didn't see anyone calling to shutter the economy when my dad was dying of cancer. Similarly, I didn't see any great outrage this summer when my uncle died of a heart attack.
Don't be obtuse. Neither of those things are contagious.
> Death is tragic, but it's also a fact of life.
Death is a fact of life. But nobody wants you around if you have a contagious deadly disease.
> A lot of people have fallen into the trap of making fear a virtue this year.

It's the brave idiots who don't wear masks who're killing the old people. I guess without your dad and uncle, you have nobody old left that you care about.
