Nope, nothing really new, just the Swedish version of Dr. Fauci mentioning an alternative strategy.  In reality, there is no way to tell which one is best right now or probably ever, and you cannot just confine a comparison to three other countries until you factor in the effects of a self imposed recession/depression on their economies.

Correct.  If only we did things like China, we, too, could have limited the deaths to 4,600.

Here is the bottom line and its kind of similar to the anti vax debate.

 

I will tend to believe doctors and scientists who have very high IQ's and generally have 10 or more years of higher education in their field. As opposed to a high school drop out ex playboy bunny, who is all of a sudden an autism expert .

 

I am watching interviews with govoners, Hospital Chief of Staff, MD's, etc from all over the country. Guess they are all in on the hoax

Unfortunately, not all the experts agree.  The Swedish Dr. Fauci, Dr. Geisecke certainly does not agree with all the shelter in place strategies.

Has anyone here in VJ said it was a hoax?  Or are you getting that from FB?

I think the only people who actually fall for it are the ones who watch/listen to the news regularly.

Omg I just literally posted in another thread I was binge watching news.

I tried that darn tiger guy show, couldn't get past episode 2.  But I feel like we have watched all of the rest of Netflix twice already.  

 

Ok, I jest, because I don't actually watch all that much.  But recently, Outer Banks, updated Ozark, and a couple of others.  But more importantly (since I may be unemployed soon), I built a hydroponic garden.  Already have some cucumbers going, and seeds started for several other veggies and spices.

 

ETA:  The spousal unit opened a YouTube live of CBS last week for about 30 minutes.  I listened from the other room, then asked her to turn it off.  SO GLAD I haven't had cable TV for over 15 years now.

Hydroponics where I am suggests something very different.

I know it does.  Perhaps one day, when my life is going in a different direction....

That would certainly be an effect.

You will have an open invite on the sailboat, good food, good times, and as much hydroponic goodness as I can muster!

Many many moons ago I did a fair amount of sailing, between the south coast and northern France.

 

I was suckered by a Jelo incorporating Everclear and hydroponic goodness, so not falling for that again.
