    People suggesting herd immunity as a reasonable option for #COVID19 should first specify the family members and friends they'd be willing to see die if we pursued ithttps://twitter.com/CarnivoreMD/status/1250091635674771457 …

    Health Nerd added,

    Paul Saladino, MD @CarnivoreMD
    With a respiratory virus like SARS CoV2, the threat of infection will not diminish until we achieve herd immunity or have a vaccine. With the latter option 18 months away at best, why is it radical to suggest we consider the former option in an intelligent fashion?

        Still surprised and angered how many politicians and folks thinks the elderly/old, the disabled, the sick and the poor are expendable. Just like a certain German dictator and Aktion T4... it’s involuntary euthanasia.. #covidiot

        Not to mention how badly treated healthcare workers by not being given the tools to protect themselves and are also being considered expendable / disposable/ collateral damage.. #covidiot

        I keep saying the same thing, these people don't seem to comprehend that the virus does not discriminate.
