Honestly I thought it was a scam, and then I decided <br />to make a request based on their recommendations.

Very unlikely quarantines will stop society from catching it, although it may protect the individually diligent. Social distancing saves time, there are no sting indications this virus will go away absent herd immunity, which can be achieved with less death with better treatment and mutation toward a milder virusRmk1595https://www.blogger.com/profile/06861647069909826982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539577136486286096.post-48415855670277500662020-03-31T21:11:20.402-05:002020-03-31T21:11:20.402-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rmk1595https://www.blogger.com/profile/06861647069909826982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539577136486286096.post-30420927940786538472020-03-31T17:54:36.457-05:002020-03-31T17:54:36.457-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539577136486286096.post-53129760049444642512020-03-31T17:53:31.518-05:002020-03-31T17:53:31.518-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539577136486286096.post-91121960830091393472020-03-31T15:01:33.251-05:002020-03-31T15:01:33.251-05:00The 90K prediction is *with* the shutdown.
If you...The 90K prediction is *with* the shutdown.<br /><br />If you want to know whether the shutdown is worth it, you need to compare what happens with the shutdown to what happens without the shutdown.<br /><br />As far as I can see you make no attempt to do this.<br /><br />(IMO questioning wether the shutdown is worth it is fine and good, but this is not a serious attempt to adress that question.)edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01150091053740909530noreply@blogger.com
