When sept rolls around and flu season returns will get the double whammy. All the vaccine prospects will have shown to be duds and will have bled so much cash that shutting down won’t be an option. They’ll be supply shortages way worse than we’ve seen already. 2nd wave will be bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we do know is what we see in places like Italy and Spain and now with New York. Having no Social distancing with no guarantee of quick and safe herd immunity is literally suicide. Quote Levitt previously predicted accurately when China would get through the worst of its COVID-19 crisis. The Nobel Prize winner predicted China would peak around 80,000 cases and 3,250 deaths. He was not far off, as China has reported more than 81,000 cases with more than 3,200 deaths. Levitt said he can see a better outcome in the U.S. than what has taken place in China, Italy or Iran https://thehill.com/changing-america/well-being/prevention-cures/489415-nobel-laureate-predicts-us-will-experience ^This is from March.

Social distancing doesn’t work for the long haul. Eventually humans need to interact. It only buys you time and at a hefty cost. We’ve already blown through 250 billion. My hope is that a lot of people are carrying the antibodies and a much higher percentage of our community has immunity. Otherwise there is no good way out of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tests should be as available as dental floss, and as accurate as a pregnancy test. That’s halfway to a big win. Edited May 3, 2020 by Me_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRONG you left out some info Levitt said he can see a better outcome in the U.S. than what has taken place in China, Italy or Iran, especially with social distancing measures in place. He said social-distancing mandates are critical in cutting the number of coronavirus cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coho8888 Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 He said and I quote " I think Britain was on the right track before they were fed wrong numbers" Hmm, the number of infections and deaths trending towards Italy is considered "on the right track"? What would have happened if Britain didn't changed course? How many thousands would have died? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing humans have to socially interact for is sex and children. There are ways to do everything else with social distancing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
