The strategy with quarantine is to experiment with government power. Look at..

... Japan and Sweden. No quarantine and no lockdown. They survived it all just fine.

I see no way they will do that. They know that

No plan. Just hoping for a miracle at the moment

There isn't a plan, at least that's the feeling that I was left with after

Inslee is in way over his head

4/1/20 12:43am

Who isn’t? Who do you think is doing a really good job?

I agree

So far almost every country peaks about 30 days after the first 10 deaths. CSoul

My question if one person started it world-wide, without effective treatments, what's to stop any single person

Mobojo

The social distancing and shelter in place weren't meant to stop the spread

Not true. Jay Inslee did.

But the question will be will we peak again if they open things up

BYU '80

But it’s less deadly than the flu.
