You just knew some idiot would hear the term “herd immunity” and decide to try something stupid.

The garages are way more crowded than the drivers seat. So everyone in the garages, including Helmut, would be in that camp as well?

How did we end up in an era where complete blithering morons are in such high levels of authority?

 Marko should be fired for a lot of things.

a lottery to risk your entire career by compromising pulmonary capacity, yeah I can see top grade rich athletes going for that idea, right

Now that we’ve seen how potentially deadly the virus can be, though, we now know that’s a really stupid idea.

South Korea took the charge to stay home seriously, and flattened their curve (no new cases) in short order. And as much as I distrust China for the way they’ve lied…

Elon Musk: “Corona virus panic is dumb.”
