I just don’t think it is possible even with our tech and logistics to do testing and “catch up” to the virus in real time. So we really will never know what # of new cases today is. It just can’t be done.

I realize that.

What we have is a reference point that isn’t iron clad.

We can’t change that. This is all we have.

I do think our government and health care institutions are
trying to keep tabs on what is going on.

In China by contrast, I think they scooped people up and
got rid of them without documentation.

I don’t think that sort of thing will happen here.

As you mention, it’s just impossible to capture all the
data.

What you touch on is what prompted me not to be quite as
critical of China as some others were.

Yes, China hid things and I’m pretty sure they did some
stuff civilized nation’s don’t do. None the less, we know
you can’t capture all the data.

We can’t do it either.
