[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guessing we?ll be at about 500,000 cases by April.  Where will people be treated?[/quote]

500,000 cases, only a few thousand needing hospital treatment. By mid April people will realize NBD. [/quote]

500,000 by April is 2 million by early May. With 20% requiring hospitalization and poof--not a single open hospital bed in the USA.

Numbers don?t indefinitely trend upwards.  China has barely any new cases, and South Korea now also seeing a decline.[/quote]

They trend upwards until enough people have had it and cleared the virus from their systems that herd immunity kicks in.  If you want to compare us to China then you really need to start seeing the steps China took happen here.  Everyone is locked in their homes and only one person may leave once a month to get food.  Those draconian steps will NEVER EVER EVER happen here.[/quote]

This is not true. I watched a few videos of people in quarantine. They went out to the grocery stores as needed. The grocery store as well as a few other stores were open. They have very small fridges so were going out a couple times a week. They met up with other friends to go to the stores together. There were quite a few people in the stores. There was no one monitoring their comings and goings. (They were in Wuhan). They wore protective eye wear and masks. There were fines for driving your car but not for being out on the street walking. There were still cars on the road but only a few - guess people who felt they absolutely had to go somewhere so took the risk of being caught.[/quote]
