We have too little actual data.

Within weeks news went from "not worse than the flu" to plague. All of it did.

People talk most about "flattening the curve" and not overwhelming hospitals. But did we creat an artificial curve by ramping up testing and amping awareness to 11? People in fear of any related symptoms are now hospitalized that under normal circumstances wouldn't be, again creating our own crisis.

We don't know how many people already had the Wuhan virus prior to the hysteria.

We don't know the actual mortality rates or how that compares to an equivalent sample size.

We shouldn't believe anything coming from the WHO or China. We need smart rational people making good decisions.

We don't know the long term impact on society this will have.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
