It's fascinating that India only has 142 cases.

Stock exchanges will stay open but Secretary Goldman Sachs said they might shorten trading hours.

Still am leery of takeout, mostly due to food quality when places are quiet and not necessarily from virus concerns, but a place near us that we like is matching any curbside pickup order from them with a gift card for the same amount. Seems too good to be true but I'll likely use the gift card to dine in and order 2 more drinks than I normally would.

I don't have a problem admitting I indirectly advocated martial law. These are extreme circumstances and therefore extreme measures must be taken. But I think you have to admit that people going out right now to bars, restaurants etc. and acting like there isn't a virus spreading that we current have no vaccine for is a little irresponsible and selfish. Something you failed to do in your post. |

How does Russia only have 93 cases?
That is less than Colorado for a comparison. |

Why did Hubei get hit so much harder than the rest of China? The lockdown they implemented was just Hubei, I believe.

Of course I have said that there are people who are being irresponsible and selfish. There are ALWAYS people who are irresponsible and selfish. Everywhere. The answer for that is the same as it is for everyone that's being an asshole, you publicly shame them until they stop. And frankly, that requires public buy in. And if you want to lose that buy-in, just keep getting more and more extreme for longer and longer. See where that takes you. But no, for a disease that will leave 80% of the infected unharmed (and thus likely 90% of the population), I'm not going to say "extreme measures must be taken" and start talking about putting troops on American soil to enforce federal mandates. That's batshit insane and its born of the very "well it's simply impossible for us to overreact" mindset that has taken over for far too many people. |
