  1. I hope Trump watched the WHO and Global Citizen star studded virtual concert. Drew 20.7 million viewers across 26 TV networks in the United States according to Nielsen data. Raised US$127.9 million for health care workers and WHO. That’s quite a resounding support for the health care workers and Coronavirus relief and WHO.

    You can sue any person or country you want. Whether you get anything out of it apart from income support for lawyers is a different question.

    Will be interesting times to see Hua Wei suing the US government and Americans using the Chinese government. All I can say it is rather moot for the any foreigners suing and getting any results in the Chinese courts.

    My home is in the UP of Michigan. There is very little need for draconian measures there. Much of the upper LP also does not need those measures. Allowing people to travel to their vacation homes during the "lockdown" makes sense, since they will be essentially self-quarantined by definition. The governor has implemented numerous measures that make absolutely no sense, like closing boat launches. That makes sense in an area where most boats are pleasure crafts full of people, but makes no sense where I live where most boats are one or two people going out to fish. Again, the US, and specifically Michigan, is not at all like China or Thailand. Measures need to be thought out better.

    That’s very much linear thinking that people will behave and self discipline. There are just so much of computation as to how and what people will do that can endanger the wider community.

    It will be interesting to see whether GOP states trust Trump enough and reopen quickly, or decide to play safe and wait.

    I will be watching with keen eyes on Florida‘s Governor De Santis. He was never serious about social distancing and only bowed to pressure from the public recently to issue a stay-at-home order. I remembered he stepped in when his Surgeon General spoke of the need for more social distancing. He vowed to reopen on 1st May. He better be very sure as he won the ‘18 election by a razor thin advantage.

    What are you talking about 2100? The US can handle 100k deaths. They cannot handle economic ruin

    US economy is already ruin with record federal debt, large budget deficit, high debt to GDP and a fiat currency. Trump has make the economy worse by focusing on Wall Street and neglecting the Main Street. The dollar will crashed followed by hyper inflation and the FED can only watch.
