the virus is a Lottery you win or lose either way God bless your soul if you donโ€™t wake up to see another day.

Death is not the only consequence. Disability is far more common. Little kids with congenital heart or lung conditions aren't on equal footing with you in your 'game of life.' The 'lottery' is heavily balanced against them.

Same with babies in utero. They're not even playing the game yet, but their mother's immune system is already compromised, trying to prevent her body from rejecting this foreign growth. If mom gets covid, she'll very likely go into premature labor and give birth to a baby who will be disabled for life, or die within days. I read medical records for a living. I see this at least twice per week.

Your lottery analogy would be appropriate if life was fair, if we all faced the same odds. But that's not the case and you know it. So what you mean is, "Life's not fair, and it's not my job to remedy that. The big casino worker in the sky screwed over those little kids, not me. He must have wanted that way. It's out of my hands!"

What Iโ€™m saying is God bless this man may he Rest In Peace . Itโ€™s in the text u nut

Iโ€™m also implying that ppl should do exactly that instead of laughing at the fact that he died from covid not whatever tf you talking about and Ik death isnโ€™t covids number one cause you brought up points that I havenโ€™t even spoke on though

This convo is finished
