    So we agree lifestyle plays a role in how long we live, but are perfectly fine not shutting the country down from Heart disease.... which kills around 650K per year.

    You can't catch heart disease from another person.

    If you have an old shirt that you don't wear anymore, you could use that.

    Yes I agree. Along with that agreement, if you don’t take the proper precautions, I don’t think society should cry you a river and spend thousands of dollars on you if you go south. Just zip up the bag and bid you farewell.

    There are probably 20 ways to die which have higher occurence than that. We are not shutting down our economy and freedoms for them.

    You have a point. AIDS kills more people than COVID19, the result is they become a protected class.
