    That has to be worrying for UK citizens.

    Nope.  It's consensus the Chinese gov fucked up the response and aren't reporting everything.  Nobody calls that racist.

    Have you seen any good state by state curves for the US?  I was trying but haven't found what I'm looking for.  Since actions are more state by state due to inaction at fed, it would be interesting to see which states are doing better, or not as bad I guess

    Interesting, thanks. Greenburg Indiana has a huge Honda plant. Or at least near there and lots of people likely live there. Wonder what’s in the others?

    I know Albany GA has a large paper plant for P&G as well. Maybe stocking up on TP not a bad idea!

    Yes. 

    At the same time, if those fuckers would have visited the mall where my moms restaurant lies - she would still have a job.

    Thanks, registered to read it. 

    One thing of note though - with them saying Sweden differs even from their neighbouring countries -- is that Norway and Denmark closing schools/borders was a political decision and went against the advice of their own public health authorities (according to Johan Giesecke).

    And:

    In explaining Sweden’s current methods, experts point to other underlying factors: The country has high levels of trust, according to the historian Lars Tragardh, and a strict law in the Constitution prohibits the government from meddling in the affairs of the administrative authorities, such as the public health agency.
    “Therefore, you don’t need to micromanage or control behavior at a detailed level through prohibitions or threat of sanctions or fines or imprisonment,” Mr. Tragardh said in a phone interview. “That is how Sweden stands apart, even from Denmark and Norway.”

    I think so. 

    Paraphrasing from an interview a while back:

    "Going out to night clubs seems a bit adventures at this time. Cut down on your social life, but the most important thing is still -- stay home if you feel the slightest sick. And wash your hands"
    "Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"

    Your posts on this topic are so contradictory it makes them nonsensical.  An accurate summary of your stance seems to be:
    People need to not wreck the economy by social distancing, but people who gather are idiots.  Unless the people gathering are children, then it is a good thing.

    Have you considered adding more political parties to your government?  Maybe 8 isn't enough.  You should try having 9 or 10.  That would fix it.
