re: JBE and Dr Billioux are saying this isn't close to over

Hospitals never came close to overwhelmed
I cannot speak for Topeka or Denver, though. I don't know what the proper choice nationwide should have been.

Weird how “flatten the curve” just disappeared.
Yeah, the whole idea behind the shutdown was to "flatten the curve" so we dont' overload the hospitals. The hospitals have not been overloaded and are in no danger of being overloaded, but Governor Boucher isn't going to let those emergency fed dollars stop coming in over something as trivial as people's jobs!
With Democrats, expect tyranny.

JBE just doesn't know it yet
I think a lot of people have decided its open now.
Traffic after Easter has been significantly heavier and the drive to work this morning sure seemed like a regular morning.

Directly causing an economic meltdown (in addition to preventing family gatherings, social life, Church, etc) is much much worse than the alternative

Boy I’d like to put some knots in that bald cocksucker’s head. Who knew the honor code at West Point turned one into a fricking bitch.
I’d like to see what he does when the people wholesale tell him to shove that up his arse?

I didn’t like Rispone either, but he’s vastly better than this fricking trash arse governor we’ve got now.

How many?
Do you really know considering how those numbers are being cooked?
Don't you wonder why deaths from stroke, heart attack, COPD, etc. Have plummeted since the beginning of March?
This event is not worse (and is actually much more benign) than other health emergencies, where the responses were far less restrictive and damaging.

Eddie would have no idea which way to turn.

thats just it, I don't know what he said.
If he was speaking about decapitation of leadership through singular sanction of the executive, then yeah, that would be over the line.

ah. Well, I addressed that above.

Yep.
Our economy has run for 50 years on getting better at Just In Time (JIT) inventory, where there aren’t huge warehouses stockpiling things.
It’s gotten to the point that storage and transportation are the same thing as the time from production to final consumer has continued to shrink.
This shutdown exploits the fatal flaw in our society’s JIT system. Where the disruption of one layer: production, processing, packaging, transportation or distribution brings the whole thing crashing.
A country is only three meals away from revolution.
How many meals do you have left?

Well no shite this isn’t close to being over. If we go back to work as normal and just a few people are still infected we start the process over. Kung Flu will begin to spread again.
Surprise!!! The government had no plan on how to end this.

In one of Trump's intial briefings when then started going downhill, he mentioned these measures could go till August. Not sure why anyone is surprised by any of this....
His tone has changed bigly now that he sees the models were overblown.

Flattening the curve doesn't mean as soon as the wave tops you take away the measures that allowed for that. The measures are to remain in place all the way on the ride of the downside.
And we have two more weeks of these measures. No reason to think that by the end of April we will have substantially flattened the curve.
