The risk exists of getting impaled with a piece of rebar falling from a construction site. So how dare you criticize people for stabbing others?

I'm criticizing the decision to shutdown, so we should ban rebar ? ban construction ?

Sorry, I was fixated on the grandparent comment ("It's none of your business if people...")

Given that difference between flu and covid is generally known at this time, trying to use flu as analogy is awfully bad faith argument.

The infectiousness and lifeline of this virus is pretty uniquely long, for the record.
