Absolutely yes, not even close. Just a slight bump in the murder rate from desperate people will far exceed the lives from the China cold
We are carving out our heart to cure a skinned knee . . . foolishness.

This is a very interesting article.
The question is moot.
The economy was going to shut down on it’s own just as soon as people started getting sick.
So maybe we shut it down a week early in hopes of blunting this thing.
It's ironic that Imperial College London's Grantham Institute is one of the leading global climate change research tanks.
On the one hand, they tell us that climate change is "settled science" based on their models, but on the other hand they tell us that "Computer Estimates Can’t Weigh All of the Real Risks" when it comes to other things.

I still want to read this but the headline says it all. I am so piqued at my fellow citizens for this insane panic over a silly mutant flu virus.
It isn't the Black Plague. It isn't even Polio or Tuberculosis.
It was also used in 1852, in a retelling of the fable entitled "Solomon's Seal" by the English poet Edward FitzGerald. In it, a sultan requests of King Solomon a sentence that would always be true in good times or bad; Solomon responds, "This too will pass away". — from Wikipedia
There will be no “Great Depression” unless, by some cruel set of circumstances, Joe Biden somehow gets the electoral college vote. Had the United States stayed with Herbert Hoover in 1932, instead of listening the siren song of the architects of the New Deal, we would have been out of the depression by the first part of 1934. But NOOOO, the “brain trust” had all the answers, and all the fools in town on their side, and the depression was WORSE in 1938 than it was in 1931.
We are still crippling along with some of those “fixes” today. Most of them were on the order of “kicking the can down the road”.
We all know the short answer. Yes.
although, I still believe its rat infested panic with seniors as the cover story...rats could care less about us whitey senior citizens...

The answer is no if you are are Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, bun Salman, George Soros, the Deep State, the NWO.
Will we be looking back in time and saying that Trump picked a righteous cause, that he fought the good fight, but the powers arrayed against him overwhelmed as his triumph was in sight?
Depression combined with hyper-inflation, because you know that if this madness doesn’t end soon, the FED will be printing many more trillion$ of fiat to bail out the businesses ‘too big to fail’.

This sort of thing is why I believe business closures should only go statewide when 3/4 of counties in the state have evidence of community transmission. Of course, the state gov can feel free shut down businesses in individual affected counties, as far as I’m concerned, until the 3/4 threshold is reached (2/3 for RI and DE). OTOH, shutting down all the publik skrewels in the state is fine — kids in a school can spread this bug like wildfire, both to each other and to teachers, some of whom may live in another county.
The author of that article seems to be overwhelmed by panic and hysteria, BTW.
Newsflash: making foolish (or more often, self-serving/self-enriching) choices is one of the few things government does well.
No huge uptick in cases
