It seems like the opt outs are disproportionately non-Whites so hopefully this can give some additional opportunities to some well deserving “underachievers”.
It’s not surprising blacks are frightened of a virus that is virtually harmless for anyone under the age of 60 and rarely deadly for anyone under 80. As we’ve discussed on this site before, blacks are highly superstitious and also frightened of virtually anything they don’t understand (animals, wilderness, zombies / ghosts, etc). They’ve also been bamboozled by the media into believing that this virus is magically attacking blacks at higher rates (again fear of what they don’t understand).
PS - one could argue the morbidly obese sumos are actually smart for sitting out. They would be a demographic that could die from the virus, though still unlikely for men under 35.
