CV and mad panic behaviour

[Thryleon]

Most of our measures are unworkable.

The hardest part is that on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a bad flu season, and 10 being the plague or the black death, this pandemic is looking like a solid 2.5.

Imagine it was worse??

We know better now, and it still could be seen to be worse, but IMHO, if it was going to be both ridiculously infectious, and deadly then I'd be all for imposing stricter measures but a year on, it looks as though this is a garden variety virus which for the most part, crisis averted.

It could get worse, but it wont be by much, unless we see it evolve into the beast I described.  We wont be so lucky on the next one.
