Snowbirds here about to leave TX. Gov has made things very confusing because if you can't get what you want/need in one city/county, just go to another. AND, people are doing this. I realize TX is big, but so is the virus.I have a friend in Texas who has thrown an absolute HISSY FIT over the possibility of restrictions. "Not my Texas. You will NOT tell us what to do." (Close paraphrase). This is why we need restrictions. Jmo
I've not seen one piece of research data that supports multiple strains....not even from Nextstrain who is analyzing the genomes from around the world. They do see multiple introductions, more than 1 patient 0, in Europe and North America.I'm not Chinese and I don't have friends and family in China so I don't know, but, I would think that the government and wealthy that would be the ones willing to sacrifice lives for the economy. I would think the same with the US - no more no less. Your question about threshold - I'm assuming it all would be based on the stock market. Scary if the ones making the decisions on that matter owned businesses and have major stakes in the global economy. Thinking back to Jimmy Carter selling off his peanut farm...
Anyway, I completely agree that there are possibly 2 or more strains at this point but it's practically impossible to know. Finding the vaccine for COVID has got to be an absolute nightmare. I mean, everything has to be based in assumptions right now, right? That's the exact opposite of how it should be. Terrifying!
Have these areas actually shut down?
I think, respectfully, that this is backwards reasoning. NY knows they have so many cases BECAUSE they tested so many. California or several other states may have similar numbers of cases, but without large-scale testing how are they to know? MOO

It’s hard to understand how this is even a choice. Does it even matter if the economy is good if everyone is DEAD?
Aw, I love Athens (and the rest of the county). When this is all over, have some Fresh Air BBQ and a Grit Golden Bowl (to balance it out) for me...@Henry2326
ATHENS, Ga. — Athens-Clark County residents are now under a 24/7 shelter in place order after the mayor and commission unanimously approved an ordinance Thursday night.
The county said the order will last until April 7 "or until it is extended, rescinded, superseded, or amended in writing by the Mayor and Commission."
Athens-Clark County now under mandatory shelter in place order
NY
Gov Cuomo:
23% of the cases in NY are in IC Units now
This is the bottomline...

So, about 5 % death rate in UK?
I would have agreed with you a week or two ago. I didn’t want this to be as bad as it really is.
And yes, there is panic and hysteria causing empty shelves. I do agree with that. My post was extremely negative, but I think the president being in such denial put me over the edge. He needs to be realistic. Optimism is good and helpful, but denial can be catastrophic.

I have compassion for all New Yorkers but they are getting the majority of all testing, PPE, etc. while the rest of the country is doing without. So while Covid is boiling over there he wants dibs on everything first and then those in other states who aren't dead yet can have their turn.
