That looks very much like a study that should not be done by economists, and the numbers they are proposing are wild. There are a lot of spherical cows being assumed here, and just the kind of thing journalists probably shouldn't amplify before some real experts weigh in.

Because author was economist and the assumptions were so broad and "spherical cow" type... I've been closely cooperating with virology/epidemiology people and remain skeptical of papers that ignore the basic tenets of the field.

Fair enough, deleted. I'm loving your pieces and appreciated the insight of a sociologist and your expertise on systems theory.

Thank you! I do try to stay in my lane and/or rely on experts! If Turkey had 11 million infected, it would be amazingly good news by the way. As in the best news ever, because it would imply the country was closer to herd immunity than most. I mean, maybe, but a big big claim!
