Yes, we all have to work together to beat this plague. Aside from going to the grocery store for supplies twice, and stopping to get a take-out lunch today at a nearby restaurant on my walk, and riding my bicycle on "isolation exercise" rides, I've barely left the condo for eight days. I haven't seen anyone other than my partner closer than about 6 feet away in that time, other than to use Apple Pay to touch a machine at the grocery store I don't touch anything.
There are a bunch of different rules of lock down in different places. And there's no credible analysis of which of them are working to diminish the problem and which aren't as yet. That takes more days and more sample analysis than can have been done so far. Many will die, have died, in all the places where I see reportage. Some places are showing slowdown in the advancement of the infections, others are still accelerating. I haven't seen much reportage from South America or Africa yet. The body counts could be enormous; I just don't know. And the blowhard in chief is talking about things as if it were already over and done. 'We can do more than one thing! We can get back to work and save everyone too! Enough of this being closed down! We'll come back strong! …' and so forth. Fecking imbecile. Keep working at it, follow sensible precautions until the situation is properly addressed, ignore (and fire) the imbeciles. That's what we can do.
