This (originally posted by another FReeper, IIRC - I’ve lost track!) is perhaps the best comprehensive discussion I have seen - from an eminent S. Korean Doctor. It should be recommended viewing through as many sources as possible, IMO. Maybe our daily thread posters would be so kind as to add the link to the beginning of each daily thread!

Media can’t be trusted on anything, but especially this.
Are we doing something wrong? Probably.

From that article: “At the predicted April 26 peak, California will have enough ICU beds to meet peak demand for COVID-19 patients, with 1,564 intensive care beds needed out of 1,993 available, the forecast stated.
A worst-case projection, however, shows the state falling far short of a possible 3,417 ICU beds needed.
The total number of hospital beds needed for COVID-19 patients in California is expected to peak at 10,468, with 26,654 available, according to the forecast. The worst-case projection is for 21,874 hospital beds needed, still within the available range.”
This means the CA economy will be shut down longest...first in, last out.

And the alternative?
It was just an observation of a fact.
And this assertion: Eventually the Warriors prevail over the Care Givers in the minds of the people.
Or, they always have in human history. I suspect that will be the case here as well.
