Trump needs to take charge and do so now.
These doctors need to stay in their lane. All this mathematical modeling shit is out of their area of expertise.
The bureaucrats have no idea what they're doing and are highly incompetent at everything.
Fucking ridiculous to destroy a multi-trillion dollar economy because 54,000 people died.
What is the plan here? Just let the economy die because some doctor doesn't know how to analyze statistical models properly?
Or some statistics expert decided that well actually if you change that variable by a few factors and alter this other coefficient right here... then that means....
And these are the people who have the keys to the American economy??
Right, the worst part of all of this is there is still no timeline at all. No idea when anyone can reopen their businesses. There's no timeline for when anyone that still has a job can get back to work. There's no timeline for when we can even take a damn walk in the park. The date just keeps moving back farther and farther.
It almost made sense to show things down for a couple of weeks. If this thing has a 14 day incubation period, then slowing down the number of people out and about would cut this thing off at the knees.
But now we're talking about a minimum month and a half. What are we even trying to do now? Stop all diseases from spreading? You can't. That is absolutely impossible.
Are we waiting for a vaccine? That's just stupid. Vaccines aren't 100%. The flu goes around like wildfire every year to people who got the vaccine anyway (literally, I knew a guy who got the vaccine this year and managed to get both strains of the flu). All that gives is weak peace of mind at best.
Are we waiting for better data on what this thing does? So far it's pretty clear, you either are in the vast majority that gets it and it either does nothing to you/hits you like a bad cold, or it knocks you on your ass and you need hospitalization and the MAGA cure. What's more to learn at this point?
Are we waiting for hospitals to empty out to avoid a run? Cause from the sound of things aside from NYC, all of the hospitals in the country are dead quiet. And even in NYC the hospital boats are empty (don't even get me started on why they haven't bothered to triage patients over to those).
So what the hell is it?
