None of them are really sick, and most don't have any symptoms at all.
It hasn’t been enough time yet to see if they get worse.

Definitely getting out of control here. My county is doing ok for now, but that could change anytime.South Carolina reports 1,155 new cases and 5 new deaths.
That’s exactly right. None of themNone of them are really sick, and most don't have any symptoms at all.
We are gonna have to shut everything down again asap because we are still getting lagged (& grossly underreported) numbers from ~2 weeks ago. Big shocker, saving the economy at the expense of human lives wasn’t the right move here.
Yeah this isnt going as well as we all hoped. Most of us knew the risk of reopening and doing away with the protocols that worked. Brings me back to this quote when I see it and hear people still raging about the shutdowns.
It’s simply not possible to keep the economy shutdown until there is a vaccine available (and we don’t even know if it’ll be effective). Shutdowns serve to slow this down and prevent the hospitals from being overwhelmed but they won’t stop this virus.
Society has to adapt to dealing with this with effective health policy that protects the vulnerable while also balancing keeping the economy running because the virus simply isn’t going to go away. The only way I see shutdowns returning is if hospitals everywhere are in serious danger of being overwhelmed.
That is a very fine line that isnt so easy to balance on.
Waiting until the hospitals are nearly overloaded to shut everything down is way too late.I agree it isn’t easy to balance but it’s the path we have to take. There is no guarantee of an effective solution for this via vaccine and shutting the economy down every time there’s a big surge would have devastating impacts that we can’t foresee, especially since this is going to be something we deal with every year like the flu. Shutting things down should only be a last resort in the event hospitals everywhere within a state are in serious danger of being overrun and it should be done at a state not a national level.
