[QUOTE="Tanis143, post: 3341997, member: 43724"] Lets see, what was that statement, than the economy would suffer even more when 5-10% of the people died? Lets look at this logically. Even in today's economy, the demographic that is hardest hit by covid-19 are those above the age of 60, who typically are retired. So no, the economy wouldn't hurt as bad. What is going to happen is there will be widespread bankruptcies of small businesses, putting many people out of work. Even large businesses, especially in sectors hardest hit by these shutdowns, will be laying off workers. This week its projected that the highest number EVER will file for their first week of unemployment. Read that sentence again. This national scare over another covid virus is going to send us into a recession, and possibly into another great depression. If it wasn't for WWI, the first one would have taken even longer to recover from. So when the economy collapses and you're without food and no money to pay for food, at least you can say "Hey, I didn't get covid-19!". [/QUOTE]
