That’s what happens when mindless panic reigns...one “less than optimal” decision/action is met by another and inertia of less-than-optimal decisions/actions take over and develops it’s own life.
Since this stuff became page 1, I have trying to point out that we need reliable data from reliable tests and people before we rush into harm’s way.
Thanks for your data.
It is? Consider that as Guardian (March 21) reported, about 80% of people who get Covid-19 experience a mild case [WHO said the same] – about as serious as a regular cold – and recover without needing any special treatment.
There is a good chance that none of them were infected. I hope that is eventually proved. The alternatives might be ugly.
Actually your post was in regards to the Diamond Princess (Jap. port) while we were responding to Grand Princess, whose passengers already were quarantined off the coast of San Francisco for five days, then went into quarantine at Travis Air Force Base in Fairfield for 14-days. But you condemn them for not going into possibly more quarantine, with false positives also being a risk, even though they likely would not have Covid or be infectious after that time.
They’ve been busy composing studies that show rifles are a public health threat.
Thanks for linking that article. I’m not a statistician, so it’s a little heavy, but it was very interesting!
