I'm having trouble articulating, which happens when I'm emotional.
I'm trying to say that any failure in a virus control plan will lead to an outbreak, so if the goal is to stop outbreaks you have to focus on preventing all failures. To borrow the car analogy, imagine if a crash would occur no matter what failed on the car....brake pads would be just as vital as the radio in that case, and it would be silly to argue for better radios while ignoring every other system.
I don't know how to build a fail-proof car, and I know that there is only so much that can be done. I'm trying to suggest that all known failures be addressed with equal fervency. Pointing fingers doesn't really work here.
Anyway, that's what I was trying to get across. I'll move on.
To put some numbers on this...
The US population is about 330 million people. As we currently understand it, to hit herd immunity and finally stop the pandemic, we'd need about 80% of the population to have gotten it. That's about 264 million people who would have to get sick.
At a 1% fatality rate, that's two and a half million dead. If it happens in a big rush, the death rate rises to more like 2% as health care services get overwhelmed. Which results in 5 million people dead.
Thank you. I will take some lean years and inconvenience over 5 million of my fellow citizens dead. That's not cowering. That's just recognizing those 5 million people matter. Economics can be managed. Dead cannot.
Yeah, that's the assumption I am making. But I'm also assuming "failure" means "outbreak," too, which makes the first assumption more supportable (but still not perfect). Failure is hard to describe for some folks, too. Some people only consider a plan to have failed if the stock market drops by a certain number of points, for example.I think this assumes all failure points are equally frequent and equally important. I don't think that's supportable.

It’s just the flu. A bad flu year. That’s it.Do they need to come pile the bodies in front of your door before you believe it?
