    Covid-19 parties in Alabama

    There is stupid and there is stupid. These people go beyond even stupid. Money been put on the table and if anybody catches the virus they get a pay out from the money pooled together. Is this the new version of Russian roulette? You catch it and you could die. So you are gambling with your life. Only heard about this one a few minutes ago. Even made the news in Ireland. General opinion is that they are all idiots.

    I would guess you pay into the party. First one to get the virus wins the jackpot. If they live to pick it up.

    I’d consider it but it would need to be a LOT of money. Have to also factor in the cost if needed to go to the hospital from corona. If you get put on a ventilator for 2 weeks that could easily be $50,000 per day or nearly $1,000,000 for the treatment.

    You might win but you might never see the winning prize though. Still worth the gamble?

    It's more of a fact than an opinion. They ARE. Looks like the only hope is a vaccine now.
