    @madamswer ...."it is difficult for the lay person [*] to decipher what the infection rate is"

    WE do have some statistics on Both the Diamond Princess and the town of Vo in Italy that both have around a 46% asymptomatic infection rate, so from there it is possible to extrapolate some numbers worldwide. No they are not accurate but an indication. Then we have the known percentages of 'mild' cases compared to serious/critical that need hospitalization, so information is firming up all the time.

    As a 'numbers person' I would have thought you would be on top of all these figures.

    I asked you earlier today about what you would do instead of what the government was currently doing, you just fobbed the question off.
    If you disagree with the current approach, what is your alternative, especially given the virus's high R0 value which indicates very easy spread.

    IMHO 'let it rip' is not a strategy that has a positive economic outcome, plus allowing more business to happen is akin to 'let it rip', so what is your alternative??

    If you have already mentioned your strategy, I apologise for not finding it, there are too many posts too keep up.
