Your political blindness is astounding. The virus was here before we knew it was here, so shutting down international travel was never going to stop it from getting here. But it greatly slowed the import of new cases from abroad. Had he not done that, we almost certainly would be swamped with new domestic cases. Flatten the curve is much more than just a slogan.
Of course it is flattened. There is very little question that stopping international travel has reduced the number of new cases that we have had to deal with.
Apparently you donât know what flattening the curve means. It does not mean that there will be fewer cases, it means the cases will occur over a longer time span.
No, explain yourself. What does the incidence of seasonal flu, which is normally smoothly handled over the course of several months, have to do with this situation, where hospitals in heavily impacted areas have gone from 0 to 100 in a week? Whatâs next week going to look like? Next month? The health care pros are expressing real concern.
