Anyone wants to risk a bet on the eventual number of sick people? Dead people?

Correct. That's why it's criminal for the Democrats to advocate and enforce anti-sprawl laws. Those laws aiming at raising population density murder people every year, during the flu season.
Density, density, density.... Living on top of each other makes this shit spread.

Density explains the greater spread of Wuhan virus in Democrat states, and also explains why dense areas vote Democrat to begin with.
Rural areas at all times and in all countries value self-reliance more than cities do, and necessarily so, since the resources of the cities are far away, by definition.
Cities, on the other hand, value government more than rural areas, since the greater density requires more government to manage: crime, garbage, boundary lines.

Right many rural unincorporated villages and towns don't have garbage service unless you pay for private. People haul it to the nearest dump instead.

And they'll be fined and arrested for even being outside. If they weren't wearing a mask it's another fine.

Leftists scream at the sky...
... and the Blue Angels overhead, saluting the Health Care Workers.

It's is beyond OBSCENE to watch the Blue Angels fly overhead frontline healthcare workers.

How much did that flyover cost?
Could have used that money to get them some MUCH NEEDED PPE INSTEAD. #Priorities

That idiot doesn't understand that it's not about money but rather about manufacturing capacity. Or lack of thereof. Because it was fucking offshored to fucking China.

I heard it's more of a distribution issue at this point. The full POWER of American Industry converted to make PPEs very quickly - good thing we had some left.
Unfortunately, Just In Time Inventory means no reserves in times of crisis. It's not a policy that promotes resilience.

One of the most fun times I've ever had. Rented a pontoon boat in Pensacola Beach, FL. Took the boat east (edit... WTF? West) towards Ft. Pickens. Blue Angles started doing their practice while we were on the water. Next thing you know there's a pod of dolphins swimming with the boat. How much more America does that get... lol.

The recovered cases are quickly approaching 20% of total cases. Once that is reached it may take another 2 weeks or so to reach 50% parity. There's no reason not to open up right away.

I take my sailboat out every year for Fleet Week in SF Bay. A couple of years ago we were motoring away from the crowd of boats in the middle of the bay and suddenly the Marine C5 flew 10 feet over the top of my mast. That was a rush!

I once was sitting on the beach in Coronado when one of these things took off from the strip at the end of that beach and went right over our heads. Rush is an understatement.

The lockdown isn't even being obeyed, and as I said, it's the most vulnerable who are violating it the most, despite the Media/Teachers trying to blame kids (the least vulnerable).
GOV: STAY AT HOME.

Absolutely. Just in Time Inventory is designed to maximize profits at the expense of resilience.
This is closely analogous to outsourcing manufacturing to China to maximize profits. That is also devastating for resilience (not to mention devastating for US manufacturing of course).
It's like going without insurance, just hoping nothing bad will ever happen. Not a good bet.

Funeral Directors in COVID-19 Epicenter Doubt Legitimacy of Deaths Attributed to Pandemic, Fear Numbers are 'Padded'
Project Veritas today released another video featuring conversations with funeral home directors and their staff throughout New York City questioning the number of deaths officially attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic.
[Mamaroneck, N.Y.—April 30, 2020] Project Veritas today released another video featuring conversations with funeral home directors and their staff throughout New York City questioning the number of deaths officially attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In late April, a Project Veritas reporter spoke with Michael Lanza, the director of Staten
Island’s Colonial Funeral Home.
“To be honest with you, all of the death certificates are writing COVID on it, they’re writing
COVID on all the death certificates,” Lanza said.
Lanza said DeBlasio might see inflated COVID death tallies as a way to bring more money to New York City. “Whether they had a positive test or didn’t, so I think again this is my
personal opinion, I think like the mayor and our city--they’re looking for federal funding and the more they put COVID on the death certificate the more they can ask from the federal funds.”

And hospitals are paid extra to categorize patients as having or dying of Wuhan virus:
