    I pointed it out long ago and then I stopped pointing it out. Let the laymen lie, let them have their front porch reckonin' and Google splainin'.

    If it gets out of control, e.g. NY, it doesn't go away until a certain percentage have been infected.
    So they shouldn't even have shut down?

    Or is it more complicated than what you said?

    To DMC, saying he's right is more important than actually being right.

    To you, being here day and night is more important than ever seeing daylight sans bedroom window.

    As far as I can understand it, his theory is that it's out of fuel because maybe 2 million people out of 8 million in NYC got it.

    I call it the Hopeful Swede theory.

    Your precious narratives are the most important things to you.

    Also collecting information on us. That's up there too.

    I'm not sure what point you're trying to argue.


    I think it is a net positive, if a large number of low-risk people get infected, so long as they don't infect a large number of vulnerable people.

    There is no "shutting down" your way to zero cases.

    Well there was, but we were too stupid to try when it might have worked.

    Makes a nice strawman for you now tho.

    Hopeful Swede.

    How is that supposed to happen without shutting some things down?

    I am a hopeful person, tbh. I have zero fear of Wuhan AIDS virus for myself.

    But, I fear for my fellow fat Hispanic diabetes ridden citizens.

    Of course.

    Just like when I told you we are visual animals and you insisted we could measure wind speed without eyes.
    I said yes and then...
    I asked how you would LOOK at the reading measured on your anemometer. Braille? You did not understand.

    Or when you insisted I did not understand Instruments because I called them, machines.
    You are a bad salesman.

    That was all gibberish as well.

    We could go on to your writing for TIME magazine, or you headhunting for Universities, but you dont want that.

    You're arguing herd immunity, obviously. There's no evidence that the hardest hit regions in the world are anywhere close to herd immunity, which requires anywhere from 70%-90% of the population to be infected. The "some people might be naturally immune" hasn't been proven. They did a serosurvey of Northern Italy (the hardest hit region) in April when they were past their plateau and exponentially declining. The results:

    During the study period characterized by a gradual implementation of social distancing measures, there was a progressive increase in adjusted seroprevalence to 5.2%,
    https://www.worldometers.info/corona...country/italy/

    So why has Italy and other hard hit regions remained flat in cases and deaths? Because social distancing, even in an "open economy" (and these regions aren't fully open), along with mask wearing work. The thing about exponentials is that a slight reduction can have a profound effect.

    Difference between an R0 of 2.2 and an R0 of 1.5 is almost 5 million deaths. Play around with the values.

    http://gabgoh.github.io/COVID/index.html

    But many Americans have shown they will not have their Freedumbs infringed upon by abiding by mask orders, by limiting large gatherings (so many packed driveways and houses during July 4th), and by behaving responsibly (packing bars and such). If New York's citizens get impatient and lax, they will face another outbreak. They, too, aren't anywhere close to herd immunity.
