IMO, if you're not talking about ICU surge capacity, you're likely missing the forest for the trees. It's understandable, but increasingly a distraction. The chief issue is healthcare overwhelm.

these assumptions are a joke. SK w the best testing is showing a 1% fatality rate as a floor (another ~1% still critical) & the virus is novel so likely up to 6-70% of US would contract. Once HC capacity is exceeded, any add'l hospital demand (covid or otherwise) ends up in deathpic.twitter.com/k7B0ai27xc

Yes! *With* medical care available. This is why I think the *entire* conversation is about ICU capacity. Show me a no-treatment condition cruise ship with similar numbers, and I'll absolutely stop worrying.
