      The odds of anyone in the states dying from the coronavirus is lower than the regular flu

      If the CDC data is to be believed, 8200 ppl died from the flu this season in the states (pop 330 mil). The coronavirus killed 81 people during the same season in China of population 1.4 billion. With that said, here’s someone who did more research than me https://twitter.com/mookjuice/status/1221321245192486914?s=21 … https://twitter.com/mookjuice/status/1221321245192486914 …

      I think someone just needs to persuade him. He’s pretty open-minded 🙂

      Maybe make a quick utilitarian case that shutting down the border would result in more American lives lost than a semi-porous border with some screening that may well not catch everything $5MM in productivity lost in USA likely kills one American ->Shutdown would kill thousands

      Not saying I agree with you necessarily (but I prolly do), but "So what you're saying is..." is unpersuasive. He told you his #1 priority is saving American lives. When folks tell you how to persuade 'em, consider following their instructions if you want to persuade 'em

      Yes, I was thinking about that, too. It didn’t occur to me when I was in the moment. A better way to present the argument might be that closing the borders will cause more lives lost than what it could have saved

      Remember we are talking about postponed human travel, not trade. The humans will still travel but a month later.

          He is letting us know in advance to watch out for particular potholes. This shows he is open to the argument if it is done right. Prolly best to take this wonderful opportunity instead of trying to dunk on him by telling him stuff he already knows

          For sure. Any trip that could be postponed, would. And the trips those displace are more likely to be the least valuable. And resources can be diverted to expand travel to other places. Still likely to be very disruptive Back of envelope forthcoming

          x1 Flights per month: 1.2MM x2 US productivity loss per disrupted flight: $300 x3 Months to clear this up: 2 x4 productivity loss per american life: $5MM x1*x2*x3/x4 = 144 All of my numbers are educated-ish guesses

          What if a Chinese surgeon (trained in America) who performs live saving surgeries was on vacation in China, or some live saving equipment parts get stuck, etc. Fringe cases but possibilities can’t be ruled out. Odds of people here dying of virus probably no greater than that
