Is Coronavirus kill us all?

@aglioeoliogarch

You were referring to this part of the post?

"Looks like we're dealing with what ventrilloquists call a 'pussy-ass virus"."?

Try to be more specific please as to the inspiration behind the exclamation 'What?', which you have selected 4 a reply. K. Just saying. Precision. Je vous en casse la figure figurativement. Oulala. Such vaguery is simply woefully out of style these days. Specifics, I need specifics.
No one has really mentioned where the virus has came from.

Some people know lol
Coronavirus is just the latest reminder that death is inevitable for all of us. Why is it so startling to be reminded of our mortality?

Coronavirus is only fear inducing to a man who is/was in denial of his own mortality. There is no certainty here. A single moment is not guaranteed to any of us.

A good way to assess whether you are living well is the latest threat to your life shocks you, or is instead met with acceptance, which is what should happen if you already acknowledged your situation. You are only a temporary passenger here.

However, none of what Lord Buddha talked about applies if you can be cryogenically frozen or have your mind uploaded. If you're sufficiently young (enough time to experience big leaps in technology) or sufficiently wealthy (to get it early or get frozen), you can do confidently disregard Lord Buddha, meditation and the skillful development of your mind to accept death related outcomes.

I encourage you all to get wealthy or get mindful.

On the subject of recognizing one's mortality, I like a quote from the movie Gladiator.
"If death smiles at you, all a man can do is smile back" :]
