Do you think shutting down schools and businesses and government offices and sporting events and festivals and parades will prevent this virus from spreading in the United States? And if so, how long should they all be shut down for?
It’s all about mitigation.
- It will slow it from spreading at the very least, and that’s a necessity for us. We need more time to prepare for this because it’s not gonna be easy.
- If we can reduce the total number of cases by many thousands, that will be a major victory.
Pick normal life things back up when we have this under more control, which might be a couple of months.

One of our large consulting engagements for one of the biggest banks in the US out of Chicago just went DEFCON 1. Full company work from home. Only critical personnel and those who don’t have technology must go in (to their corporate locations, not branches)
They reversed that immediately. The day after they announced it, they changed it.

After what I saw on Facebook you are probably a carrier and those slants are wise to mask up in your presence.

Much like you, I had a sickness a few weeks ago that started out of nowhere with a really dry cough, progressed into a runny nose and mild fever.
Gonna go out on a limb here and say I had covid19 already.

I’m a shitty math student, but don’t you mean the denominator does not include untested people?
Regardless, I follow your point that Corona is not killing 2% of people who catch it.

It means that the number of infected people is likely greater than what is known...so the death % will go even lower as positive tests come in higher with no additional deaths

yes. he does.
death rate = deaths/infected
infected = denominator in that equation
