It’s called LIFE. Sometimes bad, challenging things pop up on the timeline you live in and you deal with it. You don’t shoulder the burden on to future generations. We need to stop waiting on the Fairy Tale.
Ok that's cool, but this is a hypothetical discussion where OP stated that they would rather everyone over 60 die than their children have to wear masks. That's what was stated, that's all that was stated, that's all I'm responding to here.
Do you agree with OP that it would be better for all people over 60 to die than for some children to have to wear masks in public?
Why waste my time on hypotheticals when for every one Covid death (including gunshots, suicides, anal cancer and car wrecks), 100,000 people survive it?
Could you explain where you got that number from? With the official number of covid deaths in the US at around 340,000 (including gunshots, suicides, anal cancer and car wrecks) your claim would mean that 34 billion people have already survived it, several times the total number of humans on the planet let alone in America.
340,000 is about 1 in every 1000 Americans. That means that at best 1000 people survive for every 1 that dies, and that's only if every single American has already caught the virus.
The official death toll is certainly debatable for reasons you alluded to, among others, but if you're basing your argument on the official toll then you should check your math.
I definitely won’t argue with you on the possibility that my math is off (and I appreciate the correction), but I’m looking at the official government number of 19,300,000 cases compared to only 334k ‘deaths’ from Covid.
