I think we have reached peak stupidity

1985VK started by saying that a well functioning immune system will resolve viral issues. And if the immune system isn’t functioning correctly it’s defective so only those with comorbidity issues should be concerned. He is of the view that SASR-COVID2 isn’t a serious infectious disease and seemed to imply we should let nature run its course. His compassion towards the sick seemed to be somewhat wanting.

He professes to be educated, having studied or is studying biomedicine, may be on the way to being or becoming a physician. I wonder whether he’s got some “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger“ eugenics view of our species.... maybe he hasn’t done any classes in ethics as yet, or maybe he’s passed them without believing in the subject matter, or maybe he simple failed that subject... Maybe he’s also an antivaxer.

He may have a little ideology that is more in tune with a view of this virus being the correct path to purifying the species...., sort of a variant of Hitlers view to purification but more of an accelerated natural process through lack of ethics or a belief in the hippocratic oath.

I don't know what his beliefs are and to be honest, I don’t care, eugenicists shouldn’t be encouraged.

He got to the point of being insulting towards too many people including a moderator (on the viral thread and here) so was banned.

Ah the old immune system and comorbidity issues
Would be fair to say this virus was not a naturally occurring virus from nature ...(rather a version of a natural animal mammal virus genetically modified going from the dna sequencing of the first samples) ...and due to the quick spread would point out the immune system never stood a chance to react and defend itself over time, its a killer to the vunerable aged population who basically have the lowest immune protection of all of us and have issues with other health diseases/implications of comorbidity.
As to compassion n care, a lot of people seem lacking in that department and only think of themselves selfishly until they are struck down with any sickness and then complain that nobody cares.

It's all rather simple. We have values and we should follow those values. We fought an Empire that had the opposite values.
The values dictate that we look after any life no matter the circumstances.

Saying what many are saying about old people and the virus is akin to saying people that commit suicide are weak minded so we should let them die.

If your referring to my last post to skylarking, we mentioned nothing about similarities to suicides.

Its a know fact the older generation in nursing homes have issues with weak/damaged immune systems and issues of comorbidity with their other health issues/diseases ... that they simply cant cope/recover from any serious cold/covid virus.
The best care unfortunately is to stay away from them a safe distance in case you are carrying a bug/virus even if you are well, until they can get a vaccine/treat strategy sorted, which will take a lonnnnnnng time. Sad but true in order to protect our most valuable asset we have, the people that made/raised us and sad but true many young people don't care a sheet about older people.

As for suicide, even the strongest people suffer a moment of weakness and dispair and make a silly instant action turn into a fatal mistake without saying anything to anyone beforehand, thats why awareness and talking real issues in times like we have today in relation to just not covid but also the recent bushfires and generally everyday life as technology, the internet has not made it better for people in distress and need.
As to care and compassion for others only selfish diluted idiots would spread sh$$t on online forums just for self gratification and diluted false fake worthiness trying to tell us what is fantasy just like the earth is flat or anyone like $trump cares .

He didn't really understand the virus at all then huh? Sometimes it was a very healthy and active (or overactive) immune system that killed the patient.

That is gold ....
