CORONAVIRUS

(Hold on. That name isn’t scary enough)

COVID-19!

This virus kills people!

What percentage of people?

A LOT OF PEOPLE!

(Studies suggest between three and seven out of every 1,000 people. Five out of every thousand people is likely where it ends up – 95% of those deaths are of people over the age of 70.)

IT’S HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS!

(This is true. It infects around 2.5 people for every person infected. Applying this to a daily scale, in just 2 weeks without changing human behavior, one person could infect around 150,000 people.)

LOCKDOWN!

Wait. If we change people’s behavior, won’t the rate of infection dramatically fall?

LOCKDOWN!

OK. I guess humans are mostly too stupid to change their behavior without some force. Too many people could become sick at the same time and completely overwhelm hospitals.

1% OF HUMANS MAY DIE!

8 out of 1,000 (nearly 1%) of people die every year. 5 more is a lot, but governments and media have probably panicked enough people to change their behavior and not have 100% of humanity catch the virus. If 20% of humans get the virus before there is a vaccine, then instead of 8 out of 1,000 naturally dying, it will be 9 out of 1,000. The following year, maybe only 7 out of 1,000 naturally die because many of those who were scheduled to die have already died.

FUCK YOU!

Humans love drama. This is an exciting historic time. And not just for Netflix (NFLX Stock Price). People get to stay home from their slave jobs and finally demand that the government help them because we are all going to die and we are not good with numbers.

THEY ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH!

People will demand more help from government. Government will oblige and altogether weaken the currency and thus increase the value of things that rich people own (real estate and equities). Isn’t that ironic? The system will then demand that they get back to work, but they are tired, they are enlightened, and they have a good excuse to strike from work and demand help.

LOCKDOWN!

Not only does work stop but people will question what they are doing with their life. Is it worth it? And then their life savings dwindle and they are forced back into slavery to survive. The end.

FUCK!!!

The rich get richer and everyone else stays the same or suffers disproportionately. Slave labor is just too consumed by survival to grasp what is being done to them so they carry on putting entertaining clowns (on all sides) into leadership positions who keep making the economy work for the privileged few.

ENJOY YOUR NETFLIX BEFORE YOU’RE BACK TO WORK!
