Coronavirus treatments and vaccines thread

[Blake]

You can have a "stay at home" policy -- the home is where most people get infected. Some Florida mayors recently advised people in multi-generational households to wear masks at home. Maybe that will make a dent?

In San Antonio, the pandemic is VERY largely driven by Hispanic population -- disproportionately so. Maybe our mayor should give similar advice about masks at home?

The subtle racist stat

Yes, I know you're part of the get out there and die already crowd.

If it's inevitable, how many deaths should countries just go ahead and put up with to meet your goal?

I put it in deaths per million so we can scale it for other countries.

That question will never be answered by the "it's inevitable" crowd

You're like a broken record with this negativity

I'm actually very optimistic. I believe only about 20% needs to be infected before herd immunity. I also think therapeutics are way better now (remember, "we need 40K ventilators" ?). And, I think significant progress is being made on the vaccine side.

You actively ignore the countries who have done better.
