Karen Kolb Sehlke died 4/2/2020 due to complications from the COVID19 virus.
It is a shame she died. And I feel for her family and loved ones. But willful ignorance can be dangerous.
Here's the problem with "blaming the victim." The media for years has been over sensationalizing stuff to get headlines and make money. They constantly paint everything to be a crisis. The Babylon Bee actually did a satirical article on this very thing a few weeks ago. They hyped up the bird flu, the swine flu, SARS, etc. SARS was probably the worst of those, but it was fairly controlled and compartmentalized in parts of the world, but if you went by the headlines in the news you would have thought the world was coming to an end. I said years ago that the news had to stop crying wolf on this shit because one of these days a serious epidemic was going sweep the nation and a lot of people wouldn't take it seriously.
Here we are.
