I can't help, but the more the epidemic eadvances the more eager I get to see evolution do it's work.
Nice try, but it helps to pay attention to the science.

Killing off huge numbers of people in their 60s, 70s, and 80s has zippo effect on evolution, since those individuals are no longer reproducing.

Since more Republicans listen to and obey Fox News, it will cause political evolution if the deaths of Republican seniors are increased by the anti-government behavior of the elderly GOP. Trump (and Fox News) will kill off his base.

To be fair, ment technically don't have an age limit on reproducing - it might be less likely, but... They certainly haven't stopped at 40.

It may seem obvious but stay in contact with older people, they are more cooped up than anyone else. I got an older relative using skype and her, my parents, and us are planning on using it for virtual movie nights.

Looks like he fell victim to his own "Act before you think" BS ...

There is a major issue here and he even adresses it: you need community support for your actions. Right now we do not have a consensus the government is doing the right thing anywhere in the world. And anywhere outside totalitarian regimes people try their best to get the "best deal" in the situation. Welcome to the 21st century Dr. Ryan, we have conspiracy theorists multiplying on 4chan and reddit now. The hackers had a mantra : "You cannot contain information" - it took us a long while to understand that that applies to all information - even wrong one. This is no local ebola outbreak, it is global now, the train to contain it left the station 2 weeks ago... now use your f*ing brain to come up with alternatives. Also consider shifting paradigms. Please think before trying to sound smart again, thanks.

I just heard on the news that Canada is now closed to all non-citizens. That surprised me!
