Message: [QUOTE="nzm136, post: 3435495, member: 2531"] The article cites 2 (out of presumably many) tests, and both cited tests have small sample sizes and have not yet been peer reviewed. I’m not betting the house on any of their findings - good, bad, or otherwise. Hospitals aren’t being overrun because the virus is more spread out. If it were to reach critical mass throughout the country, then we’d have a health crisis materially bigger than the one that we had in the spring. The obvious solution to the problem is to take it seriously and bring the number down to something controllable until there is a vaccine. Half treating the virus is worse than not treating it at all, as you get none of the benefit and substantially more of the costs. Not doing anything about the virus is obviously the wrong solution, as evidenced by the fact that only Sweden has chosen that approach, and many involved in that decision have since second guessed it.
