Dont kill my mom is a pretty blunt statement, but its exactly the plea that Ryan Reynolds has made to young people who are considering partying in the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. During an outbreak that poses such a high risk to the elderly, his statement holds plenty of weight, and like many others, hes crossing his fingers that hell be heard.

The statement came as a response to British Columbia Premier John Horgans call for the Deadpool actor to speak up and entice young people to avoid partying. Reynolds whos also originally from Canada had the following to say in his lengthy and humorous response:

Premier Horgan,Ryan Reynolds here, I got your message about the thing. Im not sure its a great idea, frankly, I dont think people want medical advice from guys like me. No sir, unless its plastic surgery. Which, a lot of people dont know this, but I used to be Hugh Jackman. You know, you young folks in B.C., yeah, youre partying, which is of course dangerous. They probably dont know that thousands of young people arent just getting sick from coronavirus, theyre also dying from it too.

Of course, its terrible that it affects our most vulnerable. I mean, B.C. is home to some of the coolest people on Earth. I mean, David Suzuki, he lives there! My mom, she doesnt want to be cooped up in her apartment all day. She wants to be out there cruising Kitsilano Beach, looking for some young 30-something Abercrombie burnout to go full Mrs. Robinson on. She is insatiable.

Heres the thing, I hope young people in BC dont kill my mom. Frankly, or David Suzuki, or each other. Lets not kill anyone, I think thats reasonable. I just dont think Im the guy to deliver this message. I love parties, my favorite thing to do is sit alone in my room with a glass of gin and the first 32 seasons of Gossip Girl. Thats a party. I threw my shoulder out the last time I did that.

Reynolds isnt the first celebrity to issue such a request from the nations younger generation, of course. Earlier in the outbreak, Arnold Schwarzenegger took to Instagram to implore folks to avoid spring break partying to help mitigate the spread of the virus. It didnt work out very well, though, as spring break definitely led to an uptick in new cases in various states, but its still always nice to see celebrities like Reynolds and Schwarzenegger using their platform to spread awareness.

COVID-19 continues to be an overwhelming threat to the world with 21 million confirmed cases and 762,000 deaths as of this writing. The United States remains the epicenter of the outbreak with nearly 5.5 million cases alone, so heres to hoping that the consistent pleas from health officials, doctors, politicians and celebrities will convince at least some people to be more careful so that we can beat this thing.

Ryan Reynolds can next be seen in his upcoming film Free Guy, which tells the story of an NPC in a video game that becomes self-aware and sets out to save the games world before its developers shut it down. Its set to release in theaters on December 11th, providing that COVID-19 doesnt keep cinemas closed and force the film to be delayed again.
