    PSA ⚠️: If the rate of increase of a bad thing is decreasing, it usually still means the bad thing is getting worse.

        Looking at this graph going down and concluding we should open up is wrong by *two* derivatives. It's the total number of infections in the wild that matters, not the rate of new infections, or the rate of decline in the rate of new infections. https://twitter.com/trevorjtweets/status/1259950932265250816 …

        Yes. Especially when we stop doing the things which reduced the rate of the bad thing in the first place.

        I don't know what this means Kareem. If things are getting worse, the safest thing would be to continue not going out. But that's almost unsustainable.

        Is it unsustainable? Or have we just been told it’s unsustainable?
