All viral epidemics will end. Only in the the extreme worst case, they end when every possible carrier is dead. Since, at least 95% of the victims survive AND become immune to further infections, that can never happen with the Wuhan Virus. Viral infections will only expand when, on average, every victim infects more than one additional victim. They contract and ultimately end when, on average, every victim infects less than one additional victim. If the reinfection rate is 90% and the exposure time is one week, it takes only several weeks to precipitously reduce the number of victims.

There is almost always a seasonal reduction in viral infections. Peak flu months have NEVER occurred from April through September, and the peak month is February. The actions President Trump and the rest of the US are now taking will very significantly reduce the current reinfection rate. That puts us into April, which has never been a peak flu month.

I predict that come mid April, all of the media hyperventilation will switch from “Trump hasn’t done enough” to Trump has done too much”.

Technically, they’ve peaked as late as May, and they’ve expanded heavily in September. Point still basically stands.
