[QUOTE="Halbhh, post: 74792675, member: 375234"] One of the really surprising things that happened yesterday was the science trained chancellor of Germany [SIZE=4][B]Angela Merkel[/B][/SIZE] saying that 60% or 70% of Germans could eventaully (over time) contract the virus. Like [I]what![/I]? wow. And the NYTimes had a good piece on that, and biostatisticians say the likely range is probably 30-60% over time, with the lowest estimate from one of them in the 30-50% range. So, we are very early yet, and we want to slow that way down, so we don't get the a 0.6% death rate applying to 40% of our U.S. population, of course! Which would be... something over [B]700,000[/B] deaths. That's what we are now beginning to work to avoid. [I]That's [/I]what we will do big measures to prevent. [/QUOTE]
