I don't think easing restrictions would even benefit the economy much. Sure some people will venture out, but once hospitals fill up, that'll stop quickly. Large percent of the population is going to be too scared to go out or even go to work.

It seems the best way to fix the economy is to get the virus under control. That could mean waiting for a vaccine or a promising anti-viral. Maybe it's ramping up testing enormously where people can find out in 10 minutes whether they have it and should leave the house.

I just know personally there is no way I'm going to sit down in a restaurant next week if things open up. Nor am I going to be making unnecessary errands.

Quoted from swampfire:

Death is a lagging indicator, and it started 3-4 weeks later here.

Plus the death rate really skyrockets when ventilators run out. That seems to be the problem in Italy.

A friend from college let us know he was just confirmed as having it. He's in New York. Went to the ER a few days ago where they tested him. Put him on oxygen and an IV drip for about 8 hours and then sent him home.

He's not sure if his wife or kid have it which sucks (they show no symptoms right now but are quarantining themselves too). They apparently aren't able to get tested. So he's set up shop in his unfinished basement with an inflatable mattress, TV, PS4, and a ton of Gatorade.

It sounds like it sucks to have. He said it seemed like a cold at first, then went away, then came on real strong where he got a fever and had a ton of pressure on his chest. He gets exhausted just walking across the room.

While I'm not worried about the drinking supply, I did pick up some Gatorade and Pedialyte the last time I was at the store. Figure if I do come down with it, I'll at least have some stuff to keep me hydrated. Most of the grocery delivery in the area is overloaded. And if I don't need it, that stuff makes a nice hangover cure.
