Went to the grocer today. The creepiest thing is that most people there are now wearing masks when it use to be closer to 30-40%. Only saw 3 others not wearing them today. The death rate is way down, but somehow the media has everyone shitting their pants. Incredibly sad. It kills me to see everyone so terrified over what presently amounts to a statistical anomaly.

I agree, but the positive test rate is also peaking. But that might be due to number of tests, rather than an actual increase in disease.

I'm just kind of waiting for this thing to blow over... I'm not sure what the end game is here because this disease isn't going away any more than the cold or the flu is...
