Let’s be honest, kids have been attending large parties for the past few months. You might to if the chances of you dying from the Kung Flu was .01% and your chance of getting lucky was 50/50.

Excellent!!! Applaud those young folks. They are working on herd immunity for us old folks . . . they are low risk. That is why young workers should never have been on lockdown. If approached that way, the worst of it would have been behind us by now.

From what I have seen, a lot of young college students are terrified of this virus. They think the world is ending and they insist that people wear masks and quarantine themselves if there is any doubt about exposure.

Of course, if there is a protest downtown or a party next door, then the rules are different — ya gotta jump right into that fun — but if Mom and Dad go to the supermarket without a mask, then Mom and Dad are going to get a lecture!

Same here.

Are young people supposed to cower in isolation because 85-year olds are dying in nursing homes?

Silly students. They should have known to have a few BLM and maybe “Defund the Police” signs and all would have been good.

“Hope they have a great time.”

Me too, as the virus doesn’t spread outdoors. The only question is whether they took the proper precautions when using the ‘facilities’. If not, more for Governor Kemp to have to deal with.

Simple solution to the pandemic,,,,Make HCQ and Azithromycin OTC drugs so anyone who develops a cough and/or fever can go the nearest drug store and self medicate with the drugs along with Zinc Sulfate with correct dosage within 48 hours of symptoms and pandemic over.,,,,,instead of waiting a few days to get tested and 5 days for the results,,,,if over 60 years of age,,,,you’re dead.

Infections? How about deaths? That’s the only stat that really matters, regarding policy and fear.
