      Based on what we now understand about #coronavirus, it seems clear to me the consensus of opinion in the country is that losing a few hundred thousand people (or fewer if we are clever) is an acceptable price for reopening the economy. I'm in a higher risk category and agree.

      US deaths due to #COVID-19 March 1 - 1 April 14 -26000 Lockdown announced in many cities soon after March 16. Doubling rate in the first weeks of March when country was "open " was less than 3 days. Right now doubling is between 8 -11 days 1/2

      Under current conditions we will still lose around 104,000 in next 4 weeks. If we open, doubling rate will drop let's say from 8 -11 to 5 days then we will lose 520,000 in next 4 weeks. If it drops to days 2-3 days, we can lose between 800,000 to 1.2 million

      My reading of the room is that the public would accept 1.2 million deaths to get back to work.

          I don't know if it's really that the public would accept 1.2 million deaths. It's more they don't believe it would happen.

          That’s only because most people feel confident that they, or their loved ones, would not be one of the 1.2 million. It’s nothing but optimism bias.

          Scott that is a growing number. 1.2 million death in the 4-8 weeks. It will increase exponentially beyond that. Less than 5 percent of population at best might have the virus.

          I think the current sentiment is we are just flattening the curve not reducing cases. So, death rates would be identical as long as you stay under hospital capacity curve, just stretched over months rather than weeks. Am I missing something?

          It’s not going to be endless in either case, but you are correct. People like Scott and Michigan protesters who want to open up right now are advocating for more death and a worse economy. Those who want to continue to fight the virus want less death and better recovery.

          Have we confirmed the death count as died from Covid or with covid? Autopsy’s have been done? Are the deaths from covid or are they sick people which the virus sped up the time to which death came?

          When the government asks me to stay home I listen. When the government says stay home (or else) I disobey.
