One of my children is currently very afraid of statistically unlikely events causing him harm or death. Part of life is evaluating choices for likelihood of harm and deciding if that is an acceptable risk.

I’m not saying this or that about the causes that led to this illness, but 30 cases per country is a bit hard to justify as an input to decision making, especially at a community or country level. It’s valuable information, but if we hid under the sheets for everything that affected a small portion of the population, we’d all have bed sores.

Appreciate the irony that the people in favor of taking no actions against covid because the probability of dying is so low are the same people in this thread crying over 1000 people worldwide.
