Thanks.
It's a Pandemic. It's very contagious. The 'social distancing' will decrease the spread. I believe the Goal is to moderate the number of affected at any given time. 80% of us will get it with not much of a problem, the other 20% are going to need some kind of medical help. By s p r e a d i n g o u t the number of affected, our existing Medical Infrastructure will be able to handle the 20%.
I supported Trump in the early banning of people from China coming here. That gave us a lot of time to prepare. The Problem was, Trump didn't use the time to prepare, but wasted it by downplaying the seriousness of what was coming our way.
Shutting down the economic life (business) here for 2 weeks will give us time to get a handle on just how many people ARE infected, and give us time to figure out just where the Hot Spots are. Much of the US may be 'Virus-Free' and can go back to every day life with no school closures, no business closures.
