something as simple as being able to shelter in place for 30-60 days while ...

Even in a Mad Max situation, 30-60 days will probably wipe out 90% of the population, mostly urban, mostly stupid.

As kart is I’m sure aware, it is not just the infections. It can be the FEAR of infection too that can cause a shut-down. Let’s say the you are fine and dandy and not afraid. But 30% of your neighbors make a rush on the store and empty it out.

Then the store workers get worried and don’t show up for work to restock the shelves. Or their kid/spouse/sister has flu symptoms and they want to stay home to care for them. Or they are told if someone nearby gets sick - don’t come to work.

Same goes for the people down at the power station, fire fighters, police as they don’t show up for work.

Things could go from bad to worse pretty quickly.

I’m guessing give it another month or so to reach the USA. Just in time for school to be in session.

God help us. And God help those already infected.

” probably wipe out 90% of the population, mostly urban, mostly stupid. “

Silver lining: it would give the Red States an electoral advantage.
