The impact of the shutdown is starting to take hold: mass unemployment, bankruptcies, relapses, suicides. And yet, the political rhetoric is stuck at "flatten the curve." For all of the bluster about science-driven decisions, we are sliding into a policy-driven depression.

Slight disagreement - we haven't been at "flatten the curve" in a while. That ship sailed several weeks ago. Then it was "until we have TESTING!". Now it's "until we have a vaccine/cure" or "until there are no or some smallish flexible # of new cases!" or just "until I say so!".

Good point. The rhetoric is on an asymptotic curve bending towards "never."
