Thanks, that was great. I always like example scenarios to run through why we do things the way we do.

I waited a few days to be damn sure, but the number of U.S. daily covid deaths appears to either be stagnating or even slightly decreasing. That may be, but the number of active cases is still increasing every day. Such a thing is impossible, and is almost certainly proof that we are not yet sufficiently testing.

But we should all go back to work, because one guy who floated the idea of injecting disinfectants said so. He doesn't have any scientific justification, merely the billionaire class pressuring him to preserve their wealth.

We are societally unfit. "Here lies the U.S., who swiftly killed itself with proud ignorance"

Check the comment I just made here, I thought I was replying to you and replied to myself instead...

I hope you saw the President trying to explain his comments back in February so there being 15 cases, which will soon be zero. He more or less said, "We could have hit zero is we just didn't test anyone." Genius.

I didn't, but I did see the clip of him strolling through the mask-making plant with no mask while "live and let die" played loudly on the PA system.
