At least we’re beginning to get some better ideas about the shape of this thing. If we don’t reopen the economy to the extent possible, we’ll be cascading into a great depression, and much of the 3rd world will starve.
We could have gone the way of Japan or SK or Taiwan or something. It would have been inconvenient. but...
Instead we get all the flubro arguments even though everyone who has tried not taking it seriously has been set back on his tail. Even Sweden where social distancing is a societal norm and probably why Ingmar Bergman films are so depressing are talking about closing the bars.
Part of the flubros argument is that this has been running around for a long time and everyone already has it. They are letting the CHICOMS off the hook and maybe even creating the claim that we started it all and owe trillions in reparations to the CHICOMS. The exponential growth in all the world plots tells us within days of when community spread of the Chicom Flu began.
