I wish for policymakers to layout milestones for reverting back to "normal"

Outline the conditions and parameters. And put it on a timeline.

The model is conservative - high. The data is noisy. Some assumptions have yet to be validated ( Rzero for example). The risk does concern me, for my immediate family and my 90+ yo mother.

Setting aside arguements over whether c19 is a monster or a black death (leave that for the experts), i am most interested in how public policy is shaped and how it changes.

Right out of the gate, they use conjecture and assumption -- jmanatVT 04/06/2020 10:24AM

The thing is lives lost because of the economy is an assumption -- jmanatVT 04/06/2020 12:18PM

It will depend on the severity & nothing’s written in stone now or later. -- Hoakie82 04/06/2020 12:51PM

I'm not sure we can extrapolate income vs life expectancy -- jmanatVT 04/06/2020 1:13PM

It’s documented that as income increases /person life expectancy increases. -- Hoakie82 04/06/2020 2:36PM

I stopped at about 15 minutes because it was -- jmanatVT 04/06/2020 7:51PM

You know what you what you know & you’re sticking w/it. Makes it difficult -- Hoakie82 04/06/2020 11:51PM

Article about antibody testing program in US -- LaneRat 04/06/2020 07:10AM

Nice to see places are getting started but what surprising is why they felt -- Hoakie82 04/06/2020 11:41AM

The results of AB testing will say alot ** -- ColoVT82 04/06/2020 07:17AM

It was easier to identify the time at which we should begin to physically -- Gadfly 04/06/2020 07:29AM

Im just looking for a plan. I think its obvious we cant lockdown for 12 -- ColoVT82 04/06/2020 07:45AM

Unfortunately, the plan won't be good from a single/central point of view. -- Vtskier1 04/06/2020 09:58AM

Spot on & we need to know who has antibodies & who doesn’t. ** -- Hoakie82 04/06/2020 2:39PM

Understand. Lets get the plan parameters defined. ** -- ColoVT82 04/06/2020 1:27PM

Most probably won't -- VTSnake 04/06/2020 07:32AM

Not a jab. This is what I don't understand. OK. In spite of most people -- CochraneResident 04/06/2020 05:06AM

If you want to know why, read this book. I found it extremely interesting -- Vtskier1 04/06/2020 09:52AM

They raise some good questions on the data. -- NWHokie 04/06/2020 01:52AM
