The young adults packing houses for parties stand in stark contrast to the people during World War II who gave up almost everything.
We boomers look up to our parents and grandparents of the “greatest generation” and recognize the enormous sacrifices they made for the good of our nation during a war.
Now, sadly, we look down at our children and grandchildren and recognize the enormous selfishness they exhibit during this pandemic, to the detriment of our nation. I’m not speaking of the essential workers who have no choice but to punch the time clock every day; rather, my disgust is with those who continue to gather and party and ignore the well-being of all around them.AdvertisementThe statement, “Officials warn that the spread among younger adults is transmitting the virus to those who are vulnerable,” is journalistic malpractice.
No one is invulnerable to COVID-19. Some are more vulnerable than others, but everyone, even a healthy young adult, is vulnerable.The mistaken belief among young adults that they are not vulnerable, which the Los Angeles Times is reinforcing in this article, is going to wind up killing a lot of people. Most of them will be old or otherwise at high risk, but a few of them will be young.So please, stop dividing the population into “those who are vulnerable” and the others.
