After 11 months of Covid 19, it is obvious that a fairly large percentage of Americans

[dugog55]

are either too dumb to understand or just do not want to understand the consequences of the disease. Most of them do not even believe that it is a real thing. Fine, they are never going to be convinced to wear a mask, avoid crowds or behave in a responsible manner for themselves and others.

One woman was admitted with Covid symptoms, got worse and spent two weeks on a respirator. After recovering the Doctor asked if she knew how she contracted Covid 19, she replied, " I did not have Covid, there is no such thing".

Have the non-believers log into a National Registry stating the above and give them a photo ID Card that states the above facts and as such they also give up their right to be treated at hospitals for Covid type symptoms. Why should these morons take up valuable bed space, supplies, and health care workers time because of their abject stupidity. They can go about their selfish, "nobody is taking my personal rights away" selves and get sick and die alone. Not using up bed space or essentials for others.

Too extreme? Perhaps, but really, with over a million deaths world wide, about 1250 people dying every day in the US, and 120,000 cases a day, what does it take to convince these people? Sometimes you just have to let people go their own way and suffer the results.

1. Cops are supposed

to protect and serve. Policing and handing out stiff fines to "deliberate mask scofflaws" would be a superb method of "protecting".

2. Even worse

The idiots storming a hospital ICU to “expose the fraud”

3. We don't have to ascribe to these kind of Right wing retaliations.

Stupidity shouldn’t be a reason for punishing people, though the urge is strong.

My question is why are they going to the hospital if they don’t believe in COVID 19? If they think it’s nothing more than the flu then just stay home and drink a hot toddy and stay in bed until they get over it. Why get help from our doctors and nurses if they don’t believe in science?

My advice? Just stay home and die. No need to take up a hospital bed or medical care they don’t even believe in.

4. My thought is that they are NOT going to get the vaccine and thus will cull themselves out

5. The least we can do is help them

...to cull themselves out. I say you admit it's real when you're admitted, or you get sent home to die.

6. I think if the Freedumb Breathers are fined, they should be assigned to hospital and morgues as

community service instead money. Money doesn't obviously matter, so send them where they have to actually work with sick and/or dead. Reality *will* smack them in the face eventually.

If not, quarantine them (but of course now we can't use q, we'll have to come up with a new sign to hang on their house for two weeks).

These laws still exist, no matter what * judges rule. They are there for a reason...

What scares me - remember reading stories of people dying walking down the street during the 1918 Flu at the worse of outbreak? They were between 18-40, prime ages. Have the Freedumb Breathers who refuse to wear a mask be assigned to task forces to "bring out your dead" or "pick up the dead" squads. That was happening in, I think, Venezuela earlier this spring, people being brought to the curbside to be picked up. The satellite photos of the mass graveyards is stunning.
