Herd immunity? Sweden model? Sweden had a higher death rate than Denmark, Norway, and Finland, AND its economy did worse. The only alternative to controlling the virus is more deaths and more economic devastation. Choose health.

Anne Frank spent 2 years hiding in an attic and we’ve been home for just over a month with Netflix, food delivery & video games and there are people risking viral death by storming state capital buildings & screaming, “Open Fuddruckers!”

Sen. Brian Schatz tells me after call with administration that "new plan sounds like the old plan, which is to declare victory and engage in magical thinking to try to survive another 24-hour news cycle. But they have not actually assessed how many tests they need every day."
