It’s actually very simple. We lock down the ENTIRE country for 14 days, like S Korea and the virus will not be transmitted from person to person and dies on hard surfaces. Or we take our current course without a federal mandate to lock down the country and watch it spread and grow for months creating havoc on death tolls and our economy. Take our medicine now, or suffer long term. I have a huge hunch that we are doomed to the latter.

Red Beard, you are obviously a problem solver and I sure wish we could logic ourselves out of this, but there are just too many dumb@$$e$ out there whom will never do the right thing. Kids at spring break, large Hasidic weddings in NY in defiance of shelter in place and even a few of my relatives that allow their teenagers to have parties. PS It has been shown that people can have the virus and spread it for 5 days and be completely a symptomatic (no fever, no nothing).
