I said the same thing (as did many others here).

I've also said many more of "us" have had it than we know.

I've said that we cannot shut down our economy for this.

And yes, I said this came to us from China intentionally - to shut down our economy.

I'll stand by all of those.
Standing by while lacking evidence......smart.

FL Governor Ron DeSantis:  We're all-the-way open!
Schools/Franchises with massive stadiums:  What?
DeSantis:  Yeah, you can fill your stadiums now!
Teams:  Uhhh, seriously?
DeSantis:  Yes!  You're welcome!
Teams:  That seems pretty irresponsible.  No thanks.
DeSantis:  C'mon, lets pack the stadiums!  65, 75, 90 thousand fans!  Think of the money!!!
Teams:  You're nuts.  We'll keep it at 15-20% capacity, because it's the responsible thing to do.
DeSantis:  But why not?!?  It'll make the president's narrative look good!
Teams:  Are you trying to cause an outbreak?!?  WTF?!?

Fiction is for shit.

Kudos to the Governor for allowing the people to make their own decisions. Imagine that. 

A Governor who is not a dictator? 

I like.

Your idea here is broken by one particular word:  own.  Not wearing a mask isn't endangering your own health....it endangers others' health.  

Broken.  Wrong.  Selfish.  Irresponsible.

Ever business I've entered is requiring masks for entry. That is their decision. And if I come across one that does not require masks, I will not enter. My decision.

Government mandates are bad.

Masks or no, anyone who shows up to a football game right now is kinda making the statement that they've assumed the risk for themselves. And anyone who thinks that's a stupid risk is free to avoid attending [as I would avoid if it were me]. 

The question comes down to whether we should allow stupid people to be stupid in large groups, knowing that infections will then spread outward from there once they all leave the game.

Wear your mask and keep 6 feet away from people and you will be safe of the "stupid" people. That is what we are being told.

So only the stupid people should get the virus and let Darwin take control.

We are ALL going to get this virus. 

It is inevitable. And then we will all be immune.

Keep your immune system in good condition. That will help.

There are some with over active immune systems who get hit very hard by this virus, the cytokine explosion thing.

I doubt we'll all get it.  I remain optimistic about the vaccine situation.

I agree. I'd much rather take my immunity in a vaccine than chance catching the virus by acting cavalier about it, and I'm not particularly high risk. 

I think we're going to see a vaccine probably available in limited quantities by early 2021, and widely available before mid-2021.

Yep.

Having had it, it's not that bad, and I was obese at the time, and a cigar smoker. 

Probably drank too much on top of all that (obesity and all that).

That said, I would not want it again, so until it is 100.0000% that you cannot get it again, I'm going to be careful.

During WWII Bernard Law Montgomery(an overblown windbag IMO)said to Winston Churchill (paraphrasing) "I neither smoke or drink and am 100% fit"Churchill responded "I drink and smoke and am 200% fit"

one of my favorite Churchill quotes is when some lady said to him "Sir you are drunk" to which he replied "tomorrow I will be sober but you will still be ugly"
