    @    Luke Wernle’.   You said :

    “I don’t have a spleen either, but I’m otherwise a healthy 56 year old.

    I don’t fear this virus, … ”

    OK —- Reality check :

    If you don’t have a spleen , and you catch this bug ; you ,”Are” fricken

    screwed ; and you Better take it serious !!!

    This one hit HOME ; for me :

    USHPA suggestion : “If you’re planning to begin flying again after an

    extended time away, keep in mind the spring/early summer conditions

    and your current skill level. Take the time to safely work back up to

    challenging conditions and ambitious flights”.

     

    And also — i realize that this lock-down affected a lot of people in

    a very negative way ; but , because of my compromised  immune condition

    due to not having a spleen , (it also improved the odds of , “MY” living

    through this , by a bunch) !!

    SO

    I appreciate the inconvenience , to all affected !!

     

    Last Saturday , Las Vegas started to open Up ; we will see in

    about 10 more days from now, if the average infected rate ,

    changes for the (+ or -). Right now it’s about 100 new infected

    cases, each day ; and that is with the Lock-Down.

    @ Mitch :

    You put up a really good argument !

    The people who “Should” be in quarantine, are the old ones with problems,

    like me, (no spleen) ; they never should have locked down the entire country.

    And i can see why the corona death rate was way over inflated ; now that

    you pointed it out to me .

    I’m still gonna do everything possible , to not catch this bug ; mostly because

    the 2017-18 flue that took out 79,400 people in the USA , (it almost took me out)

    and that was ((with)) the flu vaccine. I got no defense , for corona ; so best i do not

    play with it , if possible.

    @ Mitch.

     

    Your a really smart guy , and i,ve respected Ya for a many of years ; hoping

    this little disagreement, doesn’t affect our friendship ?

     

    Bottom line for me :

    I’m 67 , and ain’t got a spleen ; if i catch this bug, my Odds of living

    aren’t looking so good , (based on death-rate , by age, due to corona, in NY).

    @ Mitch

    It’s May 11, 2020

    According to http://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ ; there have

    bin 80,787 people die , in the USA, from corona-19 , since Feb. Those

    deaths , happened while most of the USA was in Lock-Down.

    I’m curious what you think that number of dead would be ; if there

    had Not bin a lock-Down ?
