There are a few isolated cases of nut cases who put a large number of people / the community at risk, because they are bat **** crazy, but its the usual suspects I thought I heard something about a church service being broken up where everyone was in their vehicles but I could be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Model is wrong Yeah this seems intuitively wrong. We plateaued on daily new cases at around 30k/day at the beginning of April, and it hasn't really changed since then. How is that going to balloon to 200k/day in the next month? I don't see that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant eat money, you cant heat your house with money, you cant treat diseases with money, money doesn't get you from point a to point b, money doesn't build buildings You can use money to buy all of those things... i.e. by paying people to go to work and make you food, run power plants, treat your diseases, drive buses, drive trains, fly planes, build buildings, etc. etc. Nominal economics don't matter. The real economy is what matters . The society you are proposing is one in which we rely on a large chunk of people who tend to be less well off and or minority folks to continue to bare the risk and likelihood of getting sick while white collar workers and those in less essential industries stay home for 18 months collecting checks, nobody lives their lives, and the real (not nominal) wealth of our society plummets If you truly believe that cost is worth it to save the lives it will likely save, that's fine, you are entitled to that opinion. But denying that there is a substantial cost to lockdown or claiming that those who are against the lockdown are just greedy or immoral is ridiculous. There's a real cost here and its reasonable for some to question whether we need to re-calibrate the cost benefit going foward. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some things are re-opening, but a lot of things are remaining closed. Millions still can't go back to work because daycares and schools are still closed. Restaurants are still closed. I'd like to see what this model is based on. The powerpoint doesn't say. Where can i put money down on the under? 1 minute ago, mistakey said: also it owuld be 200k at the end of june The graph in the powerpoint thing says 6/1. The tweet says 6/1. That's a month from now, not end of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
