Conveniently? Why do you think I would purposely omit something you posted?
How does omitting and not replying to what you posted (if you can find it for me) have anything to do with ignoring what you said?
You lost me again.
You can accuse me of anything you like, but you got to at least quote or put something up so I can refer to what you're talking about. A lot of times I get comments on what I did wrong but never any reference to what it was that "wrong" is referring to.

Much of the world did and they have far fewer cases and deaths. Thise that didn't stop for this one virus are suffering and the numbers prove thwy are doing very poorly compared to countries that did shut down.
I dont think you purposely omitted something i posted i think you purposely omitted facts so my response added them.
Jeez, what makes you think i am a accusing you of anything, there is no need, you post.
I've had three test positive in my company. All have recovered.

Shrugs. I don't loose sleep over it. My point still stands, though, that there are many factors involved in dying (say in these cases) rather than specific to the virus. It's not meant to downplay the virus's severity. It just means there are multiple factors involved and singling out one out of many (and debating about it) is really unnecessary.

Maybe it's just your personality in person, I don't know. I'll say it's a constructive criticism.
I don't remember intentionally ignoring the facts you posted. The more posts about this, the less I remember what you're actually referring to. Do you have a reference post?
Just like you, i can't be bothered checkinh

That didn't matter much when enacting policy in other countries. They didn't say but, well, or this and that here and there, they shut down. They mandated masks. People stayed home. Today they are doing WAY better than America, who keeps wanting to look at this factor and that variable, one of the mentalities that has lead to America seeing 1000 covid deaths a day.
I didn’t say that. Only that I don’t need to personally know of anyone who died to observe my basic ethical responsibilities to greater society.
France had its lockdown, with various restrictions on travel. Masks compulsory. Over a few weeks restrictions were eased until about a month ago everything was fully open. Social distancing was still in force, masks were optional and good etiquette required that masks were worn and hands sanitised when entering an enclosed public space.
As of last Monday the option has been removed. Cases were once again on the rise so it was made law that it is compulsory to wear a mask in an enclosed public space with a €138 fine for not wearing one.

When push comes to shove, America has always fight for it's independence. So, how to "go backwards" by addressing something we can't control is pretty much a chock. I'm not one to put America down for for that, though. I'm sure other countries may have had their own hiccups resolving the issue. At least we doing something. I depends on people's individual morals, I guess. If people depend on too much t.v. and our news is I over the place, I think we'd ways be a step behind (by our own criteria). If we think as a community, and individually, maybe things would be better. But, I don't know. It's hard for me to form opinions about our US politics. There's always the other side of the story no one ever brings up.

What? Me worry?
Please point out where I have treated you, personally, negatively and/or with disrespect and I will humbly apologize.

What? Me worry?
I dismissed no one's death; neither theirs personally or that of a loved one. You seem to be able to see exactly what you want to see. Congrats!

What? Me worry?
So that's a no then?

I have never said you have treated me with disrespect. In fact i respect you very much. I simply feel you are letting humanity down with your mockery of a serious and deadly disease.
Your comment in your post 23 is certainly not worth respect nor is the mockery you have posted.
No it’s not. It’s a plea for not minimising the deaths of people just because you weren’t personally affected. I don’t need to know anyone who personally died in a car crash in order to follow road safety.

Then what did New Zealand do? Let the virus run free like America? No. They pretty much set the global standard for controlling the spread of a pandemic (and many Kiwis here will eagerly and proudly boast their country's achievements). Shut down. Stay home. Wear a mask and wash your hands when you must leave.
