"I like it when people are thinking I'm overreacting," Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases "because that means we're doing it just right." Fauci's point is that "when you're dealing with an emerging infectious disease outbreak, you are always behind where you think you are, if you think that today reflects where you really are." That's especially true with a disease like COVID-19, since the vast majority of infections involve mild to nonexistent symptoms. In the absence of widespread testing, the number of known cases therefore creates a misleading picture of the epidemic. Fauci was referring to the guidelines recommending that elderly and people with serious pre-existing medical conditions remain at home. They also advise the general public to avoid bars, restaurants, unnecessary travel, and groups of more than 10 people and confining millions of people to their homes except for "essential" purposes. That includes not going to Banna btw so show some personal responsibility.

What will be the most interesting statistics of this, and not wishing to upset people, will be things like the suicide and road death rates. It’s a unique thing to shut the country up for a number of weeks to create a sort of reverse situation to normal. You would think that the suicide rate would go up, due to the imposed isolation and the lack of social outlets for people, and conversely the road death rate should go down markedly because there will be less people on the roads, and in theory less drink and drug driving. According to the Kerry’s eye, crime rates have dropped significantly already. Time will tell.
