I posted the 2009 thread here. You see a lot of the same fearmongering then as well....and guess what? Most of us are still here!

Italy keeps pretending their hospitals are overflowing.

They must be lying!

Because they are Trump-haters!

It may be worse than that in two weeks. I think that city will be the worst example of how people will panic.

This article from Medium has very useful analysis of likely rates of infection, number of cases, and why it is important to reduce social contacts dramatically to slow the spread of the virus.

Apparently there is now a run on liquor.

Someone I knew who had direct experience with crisis situations said whisky and cigarettes are the currency of choice when things get serious. He said a stockpile of those items would allow you to pay the thugs with guns you needed to stay safe.

98MM infections, 480M deaths over 2-3 months is what they are telling the hospitals. That’s an infection rate of 30-40% of people. 10X a severe flu season.

Others are saying 70-80% of people infected.

I checked the annual normal death rate is US. It is about 3M = 250k per month.

So that would double the death rate over a two month period, overloading the funeral biz...among other things :-(
