Seems the majority here don’t mind risking rona to prevent a deeper recession. What if rona continues on for years and the economy never fully reopened? We’d be stuck in a rut - our first lost years.

Recession, by far

Let’s be super clear here - a recession will be caused by Covid, NOT by the response to it. This is a false choice

Covid kills you.

But if this recession gets worse, being overworked may kill me faster.

I don't understand the question. We are in both.

I’m asking which would you prefer if given the choice. Be dragged into a recession or take your chance on covid. Important question since it will likely decide elections this year.

I’ve been depressed for years now and this past week I lost a dog I’ve had for 15 years; he was one of the only bright spots in my life and I’ve just found it so hard to focus or motivate myself on anything after this. I genuinely feel like I’m at rock bottom, Idk if I’m crazy to feel that way bc of a dog but I used to be able to control this and put up a front but now my depression and anxiety are starting to leak into my work conversations completely unintentionally, I wish this would stop :(
