    We don't know how many people will have shorter lives because of Covid-19 -- and likely won't know for decades. There are many people who get it who will have a chronic condition. This is a good reason for trying to slow the spread until treatment radically improves.https://twitter.com/kellymnyc/status/1280683100356382726 …

        North Koreans are shorter and thinner than average due to malnutrition. I feel like America is gonna have something similar with the next generation being sick and uneducated.

        also, a younger person may not die, but they take up hospital beds, and once an ICU is full, old people get "death-paneled" out of a bed, because of careless younger people.

        They will open. Too much money on the table. Some colleges have over 40% foreign national enrollment. Maybe colleges can make those seats accessible to Americans who can’t afford college.
