Coronovirus is on the decline in China. When 1% of everyone else everywhere else dies in the next few months, it will be fun reading the public policy critiques. In the US we don't even have enough tests, I predict the effect will mostly be recorded in higher pneumonia deaths

In case of a pandemic or civil crisis stock up on:

The death rate for all the things that normally require a ventilator will go way up because all those ventilators will be hogged by the coronavirus victims. https://x.com/mistersql/status/1233755866345754624
