You can deny the science all you want. But Behavior has consequences...
Last weekend...
Wonder if the person at that gathering at a lake in the Ozarks that has since exhibited symptoms and tested positive for COVID told themself "it won't happen to me"?
Wonder what type of health insurance they have, and if they are prepared for a possible $300,000+ hospital bill should they find themself needing treatment for 3 or 4 days? Surprise!!
A nice surprise in store for people who know the person, and get a call after attending the "party" with their friend. Even more of a brutal surprise may await people who do NOT know the person, but may have come in close contact with him/her and won't get a call because they never exchanged names...
Some real Darwin candidates at work here, including the Bar owner, who seemingly has no regrets. Even defended his actions on a FB post saying "social distancing is a recommendation, not a law"...
All of this after TWO separate hairstylists at a Great Cuts elsewhere in MO tested positive in the same week and may have exposed as many as 150 people to the virus. Now here is what I would find scary if I had been contemplating going to that Lake party in MO...
The stylists and customers at the Great Clips all reportedly practiced social distancing and wore masks. And yet 2 out of likely z staff of 10 or ao stylists still tested positive. Now we know the first stylist had ignored symptoms and kept working for 5 or 6 days. We also know that stylist reportedly became infected as a result of a trip taken to another part of Missouri where there had been an outbreak. We don't know if stylist A infected stylist B despite the use of precautionary measures...
But this for me is the Darwin award level thinking of the people that went to the Lake. You already know there are areas of Missouri where there have been outbreaks. And btw, AR is also part of the Ozarks, and good old hillbilly AR is experiencing a spike in cases. Imagine that...
So now you decide to attend a lake party with hundreds of people in the OZARKS- you know close to AR? And even more Darwinian, you know that people from ALL OVER MISSOURI are likely to also attend. And to top, all this genius thinking off you decide to not only ignore safe practices but to actually FLAUNT your deliberate rejection of even minimal safety steps? It didn't even take a week for one of your fellow guests to test positive...
Can a whole state qualify for a Darwin?
