Yet we've all read about the precedent already set by Italy. The real irony is that if we have widespread pandemonium, some will say "They should have done something sooner." Yet if actions are taken to mitigate the spread of the virus so that it only has minimum long term effects, we really won't know if that action worked, or was just the powers-that-be overreacting.

Gee, it looks like there is a dilemma when it comes to true leadership and political positioning...

Like I posted earlier - hit the ethnic markets, and dollar stores in neighborhoods you don't normally go into. Different dynamics, different reactions. I saw whole aisles of TP in a dollar store while Costco members were posting about none there.

I'm surprised there have been few comments on Cat Driver's post. But that's the problem, not too many people understand math.

But since the testing of the population is so limited no one knows the death rate.

Oh trust me.. I understand math..

Here is useful data from Italy. It is not a problem for people under 50 but highly lethal for people over 70.

That graphic helps explain a lot. Italy is full of old people. 0.0 under the age of 30. That is amazing. I am in the 2.7% group.

As many times as you are preaching your position, you should heed your own message and "keep calm".
