“A Hillary supporter now there some truth”
Now, I have a small issue with his math, which is that the rate of doubling cannot continue once we get to larger numbers - mainly because a growing number of people who would otherwise have gotten infected, are themselves already infected. So the rate MUST slow down. However, that point is pretty far off (closer to 2-3 weeks from now), and if we get to that point our entire hospital care system is phucked - which IS his point, that we can’t let it get that way.
“It’s just the flu, bro” will become similar to what was undoubtedly said in the late 1930s by a lot of German Jews: “Nothing like that can happen here, we’re a civilized country.” Yeah, nothing like Normalcy Bias. Something just cannot happen...until it actually does.
This is NOT the flu - it is worse because it is more communicable, there is no vaccine or cure (yet, in both cases), and we don’t yet fully understand what this does to the lungs and other systems in the body of an infected person of several different ages. It seems to be worse in quite a number of people, at least at this time.
I firmly believe that we’ll have them...but maybe not in time to stop this outbreak and its effects. THAT is why we have to practice social distancing, and do so NOW.
