Thanks to the good folks on Twitter, I came across an excellent analysis on Coronavirus. A huge thanks to Tomas Pueyo for the time and effort. It must have taken a great deal of preparation and writing to get this done.
You should have a read here.
WHO already officially called the Coronavirus a pandemic. Two days ago, the US had around 700 cases. Yesterday, the count went past the 1,000 mark, and it is just the count of confirmed cases. The capacity to conduct tests nationwide is nowhere near to the necessary level. So, it’s unknown how many cases there truly are.
Some companies have asked employees to start working from home and limit physical meetings. I truly believe it’s time to take this very very seriously and exercise precaution such as social distancing, hygiene practices or some doomsday stocking.
It makes sense to take everything you read online with a grain of salt, including the words that you are reading right now and especially when it is confusing time like now. But I would say that when countries shut down their entire border, including developed ones such as Italy, Denmark and real lives have been lost, it’s better careful than sorry.
