We will see with Sweden. Immense pressure on governors in US to shut it down, because no one wants a baseline to compare it to.
Read the editor’s note in your link, dude. It says exactly what I just posted.
I will add, that you got your money, so you don't have a leg to stand on.
That was 3 days after lockdown measures which would have taken 2 weeks (at least) to have any effect. Everyone trying to save face.
I certainly agree that if Sweden’s strategy works then you may in fact be correct. I fully expect however that Sweden will soon pivot in a panic much like the U.K. did.
The vast majority of brilliant scientific minds feel that a novel virus this contagious and this deadly would cause an immense loss of human life if we didn’t intervene.

Ugh. Death rate lower so far this year than average for past 5+ years. COVID-19 barely running ahead of average pneumonia deaths. Fear mongering and stock market needing a correction lead to this.
You aren’t understanding the basic premise of modeling. Bc the changes in policy were made those inputs were entered into the model and then those changes were projected forward throughout the duration of the epidemic. To fixate on the three days displays a profound misunderstanding of how modeling actually works.
I think we should just end our back and forth. Clearly we are at an impasse. No reason to go any further.
No, YOU aren't understanding. All of this "data" we have to date is not about the virus, it is about the testing. You go from "0 to 60" in two weeks, of course everything is going to be exponential, because the increase in testing was exponential. No one has a clue about anything, even the "experts" because no one has any data that is meaningful.
Edit: But I'll add that it is OK for you, because you are triple dipping into the 2t stimulus plan and probably taking money away from businesses that actually need it.

Maybe you’ll take her word for it.
“When people change their behavior," said Lauren Gardner, an associate professor at the Johns Hopkins Whiting School of Engineering who models epidemics, “those model parameters are no longer applicable,” so short-term forecasts are likely to be more accurate. “There is a lot of room for improvement if we act appropriately.”
Bojo pivoted from a herd immunity/let it rip strategy to one in line with most of world’s social distancing practices. When an input of that consequence changes to that extent it has a massive effect on the result of the model.
Anyways, I respect your right to believe whatever you want. Good luck to you and stay safe out there.

Probably bad Karma my way, but good thing we have Sweden:

look at their curve. Sure seems to me like they’re heading in the wrong direction. We’ll see. Though I would’ve preferred that you not elect or make things so personal I still wish you the best. Have a good night.
You must not be looking at the same thing I am.
4/3 new cases 563
4/4 new cases 312
4/3 new deaths 50
4/4 new deaths 15
Edit: and again, this is a product of testing, not a product of viral spread
That’s one day. I highly doubt that trend is going to hold. I hope it does of course. If it does the whole world needs to figure out what Sweden is doing. Things seemed pessimistic there just one day before.

This is just the most ridiculous assumption ever. We're not tough and strong Americans because we want to get back to life that we're unnecessarily halting due to fear over scary virus from China that the media hyped up.
You stay inside and clutch your pearls the rest of us will be just fine.
Literally millions are taken out of the economy every single year.
All those people you list die every single year.
You continuously act like this is some extinction level event. It won't even add up to 1% of the population - probably even less than .1%. But here your are just being disingenuous with all these false premises.
For someone who does planning you sure avoid actual numbers a lot.
Ahhh yes the ole, "I expect a government system and millions of people to change for me" attitude.
Take your family with you.
The role of government is first national defense and then second infrastructure to promote and maintain commerce. Anything they''e done beyond that has been an utter failure.
When you discuss the differences between communism and socialism the line gets pretty damned blurry. The immigrants I know are amazed at the giveaways in this country. They're amazed by the availability of healthcare services. They're amazed at our standard of living. They're amazed at the opportunity our capitalistic system offers them.

In COVID related news the negative test results jumped back up to ~85% negative yesterday, which had been trending around ~75%.
Could just be a product of a huge jump in avg daily tests though, but will be something to watch. Yesterday was the first day where over 200k test were processed.

You see, more denial ,perfect denial, twisted denial, making claims no one has made about the drug, and then saying 'see? This drug doesn't clear the virus from the body' which is not the point of this drug, its purpose or its claim, but hey, who needs science? Orange man like, we hate. Total flat earthers.
This is rated as total distance, not staying at home. If your store is further away, your not staying at home according to more idiots in our media.
Fail
Fail
Why aren't libs using science? Just because your work, or store is further away, they're se used to their cities, science need not apply, of course theres a store within a mile?
More flat earth speak
More flat earth speak
Heres the problem, over six thousand MDs are currently using this drug deniers are denying.
The numbers are going up every day too, as word and availability spreads.
But hey, flat earth deniers gotta flat earth .
No? I will leave this right here for you. Trump has his faults but attempting to claim he could have prevented this or even made it significantly less sever is having ones hate blinders on. The only thing that would have stopped this was shutting any and all international travel down. If he would have did that at the time. The left and the media would have tore him apart for over reacting and abusing his power

But but but, they only ever disagree, the unscientific, religion of man, flat earth Godless media say.
You were earlier this last month?! What changed?
By the way, how’s your kid doing? Last you said she had come down with a “wicked cold?”
How did you guys fair 7-14 days after she got better?
31 million doses...
https://www.hhs.gov/about/news/2020...ossible-treatments-for-covid-19-patients.html
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) today accepted 30 million doses of hydroxychloroquine sulfate donated by Sandoz, the Novartis generics and biosimilars division, and one million doses of chloroquine phosphate donated by Bayer Pharmaceuticals, for possible use in treating patients hospitalized with COVID-19 or for use in clinical trials.
