Interesting hour long presentation my wife sent me.

Again, we have the smell of powder but not yet the absolute smoking gun that will allow international measures to remove the advantages of the perpetrators.

The communist party has used the tactics to reduce population and free up food stuffs wherever it has been introduced. In those countries, the Army is in the driver's seat and the basis of the regime.

Looks like the Premier of Ontario will extend the social distancing/self isolation for another month.

Here they are also. They are going to get much backlash soon I think.

The models that they supposedly are using don't show any improvement by continuing this.

From what I see and understand the models are just an educated guess but after 2 weeks and isolating old folks longer the ICU bed need and death rate etc. don't improve.

The Province not looking only at the models but for a peak and then a sustained dropping off of infections/deaths. Don't ever think that after a 2 weeks there is going to be a miraculous decline. All you have to do is look around the world and see that it takes a lot longer to drop off.

I guess I am struggling with how long this can go on.
Haven’t read where once infected, the chance of reinfection is less, or less difficult to recover from.
So really I guess we stay isolated until an immunization is developed? How that can work and still keep the economy moving if it’s longer than a year I do not know.
Even three months of support is going to set us back billions. The underground or cash economy will kick in and folks will still mingle to earn money to support their kin.
I guess it’s about keeping the numbers below the capacity of the medical system till the above immunization is made..
Unprecedented times gents.

But if we change the numbers from 8 weeks to 20 weeks will the final total change?
