It definitely feels like people are being overly optimistic about covid. When you shut things down, it kills the virus. When you reopen it takes time for it to regain strength. If hospitalizations are going exponential, deaths likely will as well soon. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1275510212384788480 …pic.twitter.com/VJwR3AGU7w

The people who make decisions for stuff like this don't understand exponential growth + time lags. % of patient beds goes 80% 81% 81% 83% 84% 86% and then boom 90% 98% etc. and because you're on a time lag you get really fucked with cases streaming in well over the # of beds.pic.twitter.com/Mpu8yv9RvJ

We Americans have decided to live with Covid-19 because our business, jobs and stock markets are as important as some dead grandparents. Americans have a very open attitude for death: "this is life". Our rights/liberty r more cherished than keeping ourselves alive. Hope I'm wrong

You're not. It's a cultural difference between China and the USA. I'm American, but I think that Chinese treatment of elders is way superior. Though, at the same time, I resent it when government tells me what to do. These are complex issues.
