The progression of spin and mental gymnastics by the people that have not taken this seriously or are trying so desperately to downplay this is astonishing. Who needs sports? We can just watch them and see how long they continue with their dig their heels and look silly as time passes.

But it is too bad this attitude to downplay it will cost lives.
I think the difference is what some expected vs others. Frankly, it's not near as bad as I thought it would be (yet) so I'm not freaking out. I thought we'd be looking at 100k deaths nationwide and some kind of national tragedy, now I am thinking half of that or less. Does that suck? Yes. But it would be similar to a really bad flu season (61k died in America from the flu in 2018 flu season per the cdc).
