I want to step in for a moment.... is not every life equally important?
I am not taking sides because this pandemic infects random people, and that is truly scary.
But the ASS U ME seems to be taking over. How does anyone know that LAX hasn't known someone who died from Covid? That is a bad ASS UMPTION to make.
Billions, if not trillions have been spent fighting Covid. Over four million people have died. Every single death is tragic. Many preventable.
But as a sobering figure, according to United Nations, 10,000 children die of starvation every day. Every single day. That is over 6 million children who have died during the same time period from simply a lack of food. One million dollars would have saved millions of them, a billion would have saved them all.
I am 61 with underlying conditions. I care about everyone who has contracted Covid. But I am deeply disturbed and disgusted that the media never mentions that we could save more people than who have died from Covid with simple milk and rice. No need for a warp speed vaccine, just distributing milk and rice.
Food for thought....
