Hey guys, Adventure Van here with a blog about the Coronavirus. Everyone is talking about it, and it's somehow completely become a matter of conjecture. It's a strange time to live in, of course, but I believe that it's an interesting situation. There's the ideology of whether people or economy is worth more, as well as whether or not the social isolation is a violation of rights. I myself am under the opinion that any human life is more valuable then material gain, but I myself do not want to get into any arguments on the topic. I myself am currently in isolation so I do not have to worry about risk, no matter how 'small' it may be.
Plenty of people have died from the virus itself, even at conservative estimates. It's a dangerous virus that has begun raising questions if it's ethical to test early stage vaccines on volunteers in order to reduce overall deaths. It's also brought up many concerns about how well capitalism as a whole functions under a time of crisis, which will require many different changes in order to stay feasible in the future. It's lighting issues with the goverment's response, being split into multiple warring factions in their own parties about what to do while all agreeing to give the rich more money for some reason. And it's letting everyone know how much their neighbors actually understand science in the slightest degree. Whether or not these issues finally being brought up and forced into the lime light will end poorly or gracefully, there's no way of telling. Assuming we don't all die first.
Adventure Van, isolating.
