Who knew sitting home on your couch would save civilization? /sarcasm

we will see reopening of some activities across the board in the first week of May

I hope Trump shifts his presser to be less focused on the virus and more on restarting the economy.

Getting off our couch in the next few weeks is also needed to save the country.

They have no idea. This could change tomorrow. I’m sick of being sold a bill of goods by people that don’t know, or have an agenda.

"The actual number of cases is believed to be much higher, but that statistic is unknowable because there isn’t enough testing to reach a reliable estimate."

Isn't it really the CDC's job to have a viable plan to roll out high volume testing practically overnight?

Now the CDC is complaining that somebody hasn't done enough testing?

If we are going to reopen on May 1, the administration better begin messaging a plan. That’s only a couple of weeeks away.

The only thing that I’m absolutely sure we have accomplished is to shine a bright light on how easy it is to manipulate the American public, and strip their rights. The political class has taken note, and is delighted.

The CDC is for vaccines over cure.

"Redfield says what Anthony Fauci and Jerome Adams have been saying all along,
which is that we will need both virus and antibody testing before widely reopening public squares.
The former will be needed to identify acute infections before they become cases necessary for hospitalization;
the latter will be needed to ensure that contagion doesn’t spread asymptomatically."

BUT just happens to have led UNPUNISHED FRAUD.

Dr. Robert Redfield, the director of the CDC, and Dr. Deborah Birx
— the Coronavirus Coordinator for the White House —
were the targets of a damning Department of Defense investigation after colleagues in the U.S. Army
and U.S. Air Force blew the whistle
on scientific fraud during clinical trials of a HIV/AIDS vaccine."

We already hit the peak several days ago. The highest date for daily new cases was April 4. The highest number of deaths daily occurred on April 10.

Puzzling that mass screening, quarantine and Certificates of Viral freedom weren't advocated during the HIV epidemic.

Just puzzling.

In before the flubros imply that it would have peaked without the lockdowns, and that we wrecked the economy for nothing.

read: rather than apologizing for being chicken little we will take credit for the far less than predicted calamity and use that to only very slowly allow our boot off you neck or we will telegraph another calamity that will never happen

My worry is re-opening everything will cause another breakout.

This is not over yet. The virus is not cured, just slowed down.

Not puzzling at all.

HIV was never much a threat to anyone who didn’t need blood transfusions, or who wasn’t engaged in sodomy.

Okay, it’s a little puzzling. They should have quarantined those that had it. But they didn’t.

I think the global shutdown and widespread isolation is overdone,
county by county rules, based on
rolling average over 14days new #cases/100,000 would be better
low incidence (low mobility/rural) should be handled very differently
than high incidence (high mobility/city)
just as WVa has low case load burden,
and New York has high case load burden.

The one size fits all approach unnecessarily impacts low risk populations,
and are insufficient for severely effected areas
