>Who gets to choose who gets sick first - do remember that in the US a farm worker getting sick might bankrupt them and kill them not because a hospital bed isn't available - but because they can't afford it or end up having a heart attack after dealing with the stress of those costs.

But this is literally a every day risk and problem with or without covid-19 as there is a whole host of diseases they could catch any day, especially the flu. The bigger problem is our shitty healthcare system.

The parent comment was about the healthcare system right? As a lot of that wouldn’t happen in a lot of countries so I assumed it was.
