The way they think is: The stores are always stocked with whatever I need. Why buy something that I may not need for 2 weeks. I drive by a store twice a day, going to and from work. I can just stop in and pick up what I need.

It's not like it goes bad or there's some big question around whether or not you're going to need it. You're not going to decide to give up pooping for Lent.

PeteMoss Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 HIPPA is meant to protect the rights of an individual. One of the unforeseen consequences is happening right now. If a person test positive for COVID-19, he/she supposedly tells the Health Department who they had contact with over the last 14? days. Then the HD notifies those who may be infected. What if that person lies? What if he/she can't remember? What happens if that person dies? In the past, there have been people going around and purposely contaminating others. So the rights of the many are trampled on while the right of the individual takes precedence. This is a terrible situation. In this case it could cause an innocent person's death. Why not just name the person. Too bad for him/her. What about MY RIGHTS? What about OUR RIGHTS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bingoloid Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 One of the measures that South Korea took was reporting the public places which they knew had been frequented by an infected person in order to allow people to make their own decisions about coming forward for testing or self-quarantining. They are also able to send out regional text messages to notify people who may have crossed paths with a patient. You can look at an interactive map created from the data here: https://coronamap.site/ There are problems. Even though the records are depersonalized and not linked to one another, they are (or used to be) timestamped and people were fearful that their private life will get outed. In at least one case, this blew up somebody's extramarital affair when their wife was able to put pieces together. In general, though, South Korea has had more success than other countries controlling this without shutting down. This would require a public health infrastructure that actually works and has the resources to build these types of tools in advance, before an emergency is already underway. CDC and state health departments - one of the few things we actually need government to be doing - have basically been whittled down to nothing over the last twenty years.

In general, though, South Korea has had more success than other countries controlling this without shutting down. The situation just outs dishonest people. The same thing happened at 9/11. One guy got a phone call at his girl friend's place from his wife. She asked him where he was. He said he was at work in the towers. They had already crashed to the ground when he answered the phone. 10 minutes ago, Bingoloid said: This would require a public health infrastructure that actually works and has the resources to build these types of tools in advance, before an emergency is already underway.

We can't afford to keep some structures in place for every possible occurance. Choices must be made. We would have more than enough money if people didn't steal and lie to get free money. Many of the school district announcements include the fact that they are putting plans in place to feed their students. What? When did a school district become a main provider of food to students? What about parents? What about relatives? Maybe if the parents stopped buying cigs, tats, hi end cable, multiple cell phones, and the myriad of items that they buy, they could afford to pay for food for their children.

You fed the beast of panic and actively worked to get people to ignore me while I was saying to calm down. People like you are 100% responsible for this reaction.

They demand we shelter in place while they do what they want to do. They also demand wide open borders and unchecked immigration while we are supposed lock our lives down. I don't get why people can't see how they are trying to condition Americans to panic and run every freaking time they cook up a new scare. It is obvious as hell but I'm the nut job.
