How is this positive? I don’t want my parents or grandfather to die, or my friends with common immunity issues like asthma?

Knowing information is always good! It’s positive because we have some facts and we see the virus is very targeted which can help us in policy making. Of course no one wants their relatives to die.

We can open up a targeted economy and know who we need to protect in our communities vs wasting resources on people that won’t have issues from the virus.

We know it’s not smart to wipe 50% off of our economy for people who are retired already. We also have data that supports we are potentially closer to herd immunity, although we still have a ways to see if that works.

That’s what I’m trying to find out. It’s worrying if obesity is one since Americans are fat but we can take also see that old age is a primary factor.

I’m researching some more but it’s been a little political lately so it’s hard not to find nit-picked data.

Yale had released some preliminary research counting excess deaths instead of COVID deaths. Excess deaths are there increase in deaths compared to this time last year. In the researched period, the excess deaths were almost double that of the reported covid deaths. This is in a period where deaths should have decreased due to reduction in accidents from driving or other activities. We know that covid is causing other immediate health issues- strokes, heart attacks, especially in younger populations. Also, none of this considers lifelong health issues in survivors that remain after the virus.

Could also be a result of increased suicides or people with other medical problems not getting treated due to priority care going to Covid patients

Going through a rough patch, mental-health wise. I have always been a high performer and dont back down from challenges. But this past month something feels off in my head and I have 0% motivation for anything at the moment. Brief run down: work-stress, meeting expectations, fear of failure, imposter-syndrome, negative self-image (probably from all the time I spend on IG… might need therapy. 🥲
I don’t know what went wrong, but I don’t think I’m the only one to have felt this. Sorry for the sads!
