Pence will be “the fall goy” for the high case/fatality numbers in March. But not a big deal IMO. He should retire after 2024 anyway.

There has to be a balance between risk and profit. We can’t afford no profit, or too much risk.
So far the balance seems OK, though that could change.

tracking cases and
quarantines over economics have succeeded.
China , Singapore , Taiwan, and Possible Korea .We are weak and rudderless and in denial .
Look at Italy .
They are now panicking .
