Not sure how that relates to my post (which was, for the record, a weak joke about so many of the candidates being in the most vulnerable age-group). But on the wider topic, I still feel that the biggest danger is health-care systems being overwhelmed by the sheer demand coronavirus may place on them. Seems that Italy is already having problems in that respect.
The US system would presumably struggle in a very different way to tax-funded or nation-state-run systems, but I don't see it performing all that well.
This is one of those topics where I find myself getting alternately irritated with 'both sides', at least when I hear radio phone-ins.
It seems to me there's a kind of machismo involved on both the 'survivalist, apocalypse-craving, love-the-drama' (usually right-wing) side, and also the 'I am so much more rational than everyone else, everyone-else-is-hysterical, it's no worse than flu' side.
As with so many of these issues where both sides can annoy me, the problem is there's just a huge lack of data. Nobody really knows as much as they pretend to. I am pretty sure that problems always begat more problems, though, and this will cause both economic and political harm.
