I don't know were you get your info, but it needs an update.
I live in walking distance of the French border and since approximate 2 weeks I can't cross borders anymore.

Still allowing travel to the UK and stopping traveling to the EU was not his brightest move. It sounds like a heavy uninformed decision, at least for healthcare purposes.I suspect economic motives.
correction
Stopping the flights from Communist China early and wuflu spreading EU nations was not "random dumb luck".

Some Facts
Coronavirus: Trump suspends travel from Europe, except the UK
As predicted already by many, it became the next hot spot, shortly after and they stopped the herd immunity path
The U.K. backed off on herd immunity. To beat COVID-19, we’ll ultimately need it.
Contrast it with Belgium's almost four times as many dead despite having implemented drastic lockdowns measures AND having had their first case a full 10 days after Sweden's.
Most Countrys count only the confirmed dead (tested) from COVID-19.
In Belgium they count also the dead were there are strong indications they died from COVID-19. (Including those outside hospitals)
So the statistics are not covered up and try to provide a realistic view of the situation. If you need to make a decission, you need correct information.
The number of hospitalized is decreasing in Belgium. So drastic lockdown will have effect, but the dead statistics is lagging behind something like a day of 10.
consider one thing: Having people (Consumers & Vendors) is a prerequisite for having an economy.
The risk is you will end up with none of both.
You can take the Risk Management approach on this.
If you should for example a limit to 30.000 deaths a year, you will have to forbid cars.
This is not how it works.
There are severe differences between Covid and the Flu.
- For the Flu you can get vaccinated. Corona you can't (yet). Meaning that in case of the Flu, you yourself can be responsible to minimize the risk by getting vaccinated. The state doesn't need to care.
- Also there are already more people resistant to the Flu. Corona is new, nearly nobody is immune
- For Corona it is clearly the government who is responsible to handle the Risk, unless everybody is suddenly disciplined enough to follow recomendations like social distancing.
Another major difference: The 61.000 for the the flu are figures if the government doesn't do anything at all. The 100.000 predicted deaths for Covid is already been calculated including a forced shutdown. Without it would have been worse.
There is something insane at putting so much people at risk. my 2 cents.
The CDC estimates as many as 61,000 people die of the flu (in the US) every year. Which is not even newsworthy.
Just for the perspective, if you would apply measures as social distancing and lock down in case of flu, you would see that lesser people dying.
Somehow it will ends, but it's uncertain when and where.
What I can predict: A new world order in the 21th century; This outcome is more likely the longer it takes to stop the virus.
Most likely it will be the superpower who pass the Corona virus with less casualties.
The first one to develop a cure will gave a good headstart.
Given the current forecast, it will not be the USA.
But if coarse, I"m not mme Soleil
Well according to breaking news, the WHO prognosed the USA as the next hot spot for the corona virus.
Come back within 2 weeks for reevaluation.
LWhatever the US did, seemed to have worked.
Review your remark within 10 days from now.
I hope you are right, but I think they don't do anything, including testing properly.
The US is ignorant to the real damage and it will hit hard when gets visible.
The growth curve of infections is exponential
The current health care facilities are anywhere insufficiënt to cope with this and this is the real problem.
Stay at home and keep distance
This story remains me to a similar story who made it in the press. (well not quite exactly, but...)
The intention of the ban seems to be different, same result.
Locals would have to buy their on local water, but in bottles.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Ban on bottled water
In July 2009 "Bundy on Tap",[10] a community initiative in Bundanoon, declared itself opposed to the sale of bottled drinking water on environmental grounds; local businesses instead committed themselves to filling re-usable bottles with tap water on request.[11][12] The issue of bottled water was to protest against companies Norlex and Coca-Cola (that owns Australian bottled water brands Neverfail and Mount Franklin) extracting water from the town's groundwater.
Hmmm.....
The nest answer would be not to cheat, but make the game believe your opponent is cheating...

Nobody cafés about Y2K bug anymore.
This is a stand for the nest election: Trump had signed more laws then anyone else did.
This is an easy target. Expect more laws
tot follow.
Since Frankenstein does have a more negative sound, my FrankenOS should definitely contain
- Cooperative Multitasking
- BSOD screens
- VI Editor as the only one allowed (Due to the complexity of the interface)
- Novell ipx/spx Netware for communications
- Floppy disk in case you need to perform manual updates
Hmmm looks like a sound description of WFW with Novell Netware connection.
1 + 1 = 3, for large values of 1.
