I like what the guy from the Hoover Institute said: We are shutting down the world's 5th largest economy (California) because three people are dying a day in California from covid-19. 750 people die each day in California! Out of those 750 - 3 die from corona virus! New York City has the highest concentration (nearly half the country)- the tight restrictions should be placed there. I read an article - some woman that is part of the Spanish royal family died from corona virus - she was 87. 87! She could have died easily from getting the regular flu ...or, a cold! We didn't close down the country during the AIDS panic in the 80's. We didn't close down the country when we had the Swine flu pandemic 10 years ago that killed 20,000 Americans! The media and politics is to blame. No politician DARES to speak out against this. The media would crucify him. One politician says,"everyone should stay off the streets". Then, the next one to up him says, "Everyone stay home." Then, the next one - to better them all says, " Everyone should hole up in their front hall closet at home!" The media makes millions $$ from their advertisers - and since they are going full guns with this - maybe, they should donate some of their millions towards the workers that are out of work now. If they were madated to do this - they would probably come out saying that this panic/scare has ended - and pursue their next big news story!!!
