[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]and we are using bad data to take bad decisions.. https://www.statnews.com/2020/03/17/a-fiasco-in-the-making-as-the-coronavirus-pandemic-takes-hold-we-are-making-decisions-without-reliable-data/[/quote] He makes some interesting points, particularly about the questionable decision to close the schools pretty much nationwide. And, the bottom line is, we don't have enough data on the prevalence of covid19 in the US. We need more tests. He makes that case crystal clear. We ARE making decisions in the absence of data, not using BAD data, as the PP says. We have a little data, but not nearly enough. And the social cost of lockdowns, school closures is yet to be seen, beyond the economic cost. I'd say we're doing the best we can, but all this should have been addressed earlier by people in the know and with the power to do something about it. [/quote]
