Yes, it’s a strawman because like other rational people here, I’ve never called for doing “nothing.” What’s usually done during flu season? Advise caution, promote hand washing and discourage going out when sick or just recovered, protect the weak and elderly. Add in voluntary work from home, shut down travel to and from China, close airports where outbreaks occur, close senior centers and rest homes to visitors, etc. Not shut the whole economy down cold!

I asked for your plan from early on. When decisions had to be made. Can you link to where you first posted the above info before today?
We’ve been locked down for, what a week or so? Was I supposed to be psychic two months ago and predict that our leaders we’re going to go off the deep end?
Who knew what was true at first. The news from China seemed pretty grim but I was skeptical. I remember the dud that was swine flu in 1976 and heterosexual AIDS again around 1990. I didn’t post anything about what measures I thought were prudent until very recently because like most I feared the worst was true. That’s what the media and the experts said, right? Now that we’re shut down and it’s clear we got scammed I can recognize the insanity of it all.
