I read that in the news here and was surprised to hear someone so boldly put a price on a human life. Last fall both of my instructors were infected with COVID, but none of the students in their classes knew until it was too late. Fortunatly, all of my classes were online, but the in-person students only found out when someone mentioned it during a Zoom session. The other we were told was out for months with "heart trouble" but he ended up telling us during the spring semester that he almost died of it.
I guess you can say that at least your politicians say it out loud if that can be counted as a virtue by them. But the real question I'd ask is what value does the public put on their lives? Would thye be willing to be guided by the same metric?
That is a fantastic response 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
