Sorry but that story is just too sad. I could not read it to the end. Just too sad.

What HC said.

How can someone like Boaz look at that picture and look at this young life and say "Hey, this is okay."

These people deserve twice the abuse we give them.

No foresight, no understanding of what happens outside of their personal bubble.

Deplorable.

Please rest in comfort and peace.

What a wonderful life the American system gave her. I'm sure it was somehow her own fault for not reading Ayn Rand or something.

Wait what?!

MadBomber was just telling us over on another thread that there's practically no risk to people in that age group!

Needless tragedy.

While it is true they are a small percent of those who die, they appear to be just as likely to suffer from other complications and have some of their own. COVID isn't the Flu.

If they voted for Trump or other candidates who have resisted enacting controls that could save lives taken by this disease then that is effectively what they did. Missourians are continuing to die as our do-nothing Governor and our do-nothing President continue to spread misinformation about the virus.
