I think the only thing that is certain is that no matter what the outcome is

some people will say we didn't do enough and were too slow to react and others will say we did too much and acted way too quickly. Just one more thing to further divide our country and turn into a political fight. So tired of this version of America.

If herd immunity is the thing that will bring this thing to a halt, is it a

And if he needs hospitalization or spreads it to others?

If he needs hospitalization, his theory is that it's best to get it early when

Isn't the strain on health system suppose to be highest now, and better later?

I thought the "flatten the curve" model was supposed to try to spread out

BYUMizzou

I fear we are delaying the curve, not flattening it.

This is the exact argument I've made.

Darwinism took a long break once our quality of life advanced to the point where

The problem is if you run the math on herd immunity.

ReyOso

3/26/20 7:19am

I haven't run the math. Of course it's not my theory either. We did argue

BYUMizzou

3/26/20 7:23am

....but your math is fuzzy. You’re using 100% and not 70% of population

"Fuzzy" is a very kind way to put it.

You are thinking linearly, not exponentially.

Question with this is if once you've been exposed and not impacted, can you subsequently be re-exposed

unctoothman

3/26/20 7:30am

I have no idea. This guy is obviously assuming that once exposed, you're immune

BYUMizzou

3/26/20 7:41am

Could be a very big assumption

It reportedly mutates.

My argument is to get it while beds are available in case you are hospitalized.

I'm not saying 40-80% are going to be infected in the next few months

On the other hand if everyone somehow avoids it

Northwest Cougar

3/26/20 10:18am

Right. I think that's why the goal is not eliminating spread, but slowing it and

BlooGeek

3/26/20 10:43am

Agreed. I'm just not convinced that the extra slowing is required. If "most"

You may be correct, but do you want to be the Governor of the next NY & explain
