Except this isn't an influenza outbreak.

Is there a difference with respect to the effectiveness of masks?

A cultural difference. Most asian countries people wear masks if they’re sick in order to prevent you getting sick.
You’ll see that everywhere for decades not just now. From Japan to Singapore. All over.

As it now applies to all of us, assume you have the virus and anyone around you also could and take necessary precautions.

Meanwhile. Dear Donald....

They're in Arizona. They could have just hopped across the border and got the real stuff.

Sure. Most people aren’t directly impacted by the virus yet, either.

Expect that to change at exactly the same time this does

UK lockdown - annoyingly we're running out of vegetables and a few other things, so will have to deal with another round of panic buyers.

Well, they did just spend years claiming collusion.

The president is on tv telling America that this is going to be over soon, the virus is equatable to the flu, and we will be opening up for business “very very soon,” so of course Burt is flippant while Bi_3 whatabouts with nonsense.

This seems like a humanitarian disaster in the making.

How is that going to work when states have closed school for the year and cases keep rising?

Trump's gonna Trump, but I think broadly speaking it's a fair question to ask, but if you dare to ask it, you are immediately some kind of malthusian monster who just wants to kill people to make the squiggly line go up.

What is a fair question? That we should "reopen" on Monday? No, no it isn't. It's a stupid question. Our numbers are increasing like crazy. Why would we want to increase interaction during that time?

Jesus, Burt, how are you such a boomer?

"At what point is a economic disaster more deadly and destructive than the disease?"

Maybe not on Monday, but a month from now? 2 months? 6?

At some point the scales tip the other way.
