This is why the stupid shit Trump says actually matters and shouldn't be disregarded as, "that's just Trump, or how he speaks..." NO. People have it hard enough with how many are stupid and do stupid shit regardless of who our leaders are. But when you have someone as stupid as Trump is, it's just adding fuel to the Stupid Fire.
It must be sheer dumb luck this couple lived into their 60's.

People are stupid. Doesn't matter who says it. The guy took his fish tank cleaning supplies and ate it. They're stupid. Lots of chemicals are used for various things, even in out foods.
I swear there's no personal accountability anymore. We just blame others for everything these days.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I wanted to share with you all something I thought about earlier today. If you look at the statistics of world wide confirmed vs deaths, the percentage of deaths is incredibly scary, 4.5%. Crazy high, so of course we try to somehow make sense of it to calm down, maybe say things like, well there's a lot of poorer/less capable countries included. Ok, fine, lets just focus on the US. That figure is around 1.5%, oh wow that's so much better, ok maybe it's not so bad. I live in a neighborhood of 70 homes, with an average of about 3 family members per house. Being in such a small neighborhood with our own private clubhouse/pool pretty much everyone here is close in terms of neighbors. Everyone knows each other. We hang out the pool in the summer, drink, bbq, hold kids events for all the holidays (Easter, Halloween, Christmas, Memorial Day, Labor Day, last day of school, etc...), have community work days. You know what that 1.5% is? That's an entire family dead.
I didn't post this as any sort of scare post. I just wanted to share my thoughts and make these random numbers/statistics somewhat more meaningful that anyone can easily relate to. Ya'll stay safe now.

Is it just me or is the scariest statistic, the daily new cases of the Covid-19 infection?

The worst part of this virus is how it attacks the lungs. What is staggering is the number of new cases here in the US, but this could be due to almost everyone wanting to be tested.

I would guess the numbers of cases in the USA are double or triple of the numbers being reported. There's still a shortage of tests and if you're not important or lucky, you can't get tested.
