fanfor42 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 As a CPA with 30 years experience I'm gonna tell everyone. One bad month in business is a blip. 6 bad months puts businesses in bankruptcy. Decisive decisions now mean the down turn could be short lived. If you own a restaurant or a pub or gym or s night club ir a movie theater or a yoga studio what do you want? A bad month or 6 bad months? There will be many bankruptcies if this drags out. Please be decisive government. Take action now to shorten the downturn. Anyone who thinks I'm wrong go to yòur local pub and see how slow they are right now. 6 more months and they're all under. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of people don't get this. The moment the virus was in our borders, with a 2 week incubation period and high transmission percentages it was already a lost battle. The fight at that point in time becomes more about containment and mitigation. It worked with numerous outbreaks int eh recent past including ebola. I trust those people implicitly.

C'mon @Alflives, you're better than this. Yeah, it bothers me. I have an autoimmune disease (not sure if that could play a role), 3 young kids and my parents are older / my Dad has had health issues over the last couple years. Plus, you never know if you have some underlying health issues you're unaware of. While kids have been mostly fine, i don't think we can live in absolutes with any of this...you just never know. I'm not ready to leave this rock or leave my kids without a Dad...and i'm not ready to lose anyone else in my life either. His disregard for peoples lives is disturbing! It's too bad, because i really had nothing against him. Edit: Also, the effect financially! That's a whole other story for us!

Maybe the UK has the right idea with their 'herd immunity' strategy of combating the virus. Looks like someone forgot to send them your "links". You mean the strategy that they abandoned because scientists, the people actually publishing empirical research in the "links" I provided, told them that it would result in a quarter-million deaths? https://www.technologyreview.com/f/615369/uk-dropping-coronavirus-herd-immunity-strategy-250000-dead/ A new report issued by a group of experts advising the UK government offers a blistering assessment of the country’s previous “herd immunity” approach to coronavirus, suggesting that as many as 250,000 people could die as a result—and that it would do little to stop health-care facilities from being overwhelmed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can say is I hope you don't infect others, because I don't think you're changing your mind. If you can't sacrifice a small period of time (in the grand scheme of things) with reduced entertainment for the greater good of society, I think we're just very different human beings. I think he is extremely selfish...…... and Maybe he should think about his love ones he will infect...……….I hope they all pull through...…….I hope he can live with it if they don't 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
