The story of the Diamond Princess cruise ship indicates that only about 20% will get infected, so five times the infected would mean a population of one billion?

And that assumes all the nation’s residences somehow become connected by ductwork used to share unfiltered air between them all...like the cabins on a cruise ship.

The insanity is becoming widespread, both on these boards and across our nation.

Right.

The virus certainly is serious and I recognize that.

In fact, I am in the age group most in danger.

But shutting down all of the nation, thus handicapping our ability to find a cure or a defense is not wise.
