You got all that out of "close the restaurants".... and yet never got to GBI.
its quite fascinating.
your welcome
how much of that did you not know ?
85% ?

its quite fascinating.
and how do you propose to do that?This is the reason I said the protection should have been focused on people with poor health condition. Many elderly are in very good shape, in many cases with better health than lots of young people.

I love Australia too... lol
I worked at the 4 seasons hotel Yulara resort, Uluru for just on 9 months as a purchaser (1990/91). I have visited the area from Melbourne, on 4 separate occasions and find the place and local indigenous peoples fascinating..
reminder:

you probably know more about the art work than most Australians.(including local Indigenous).. lol
ah but you are mistaken, the outcome is quite well understood. A person who is free to travel any where is infected unknowingly and has approximately 4 days to spread the good news.
Going on to further infect others who are also free to travel and interact with potential vectors and also do so unknowingly. By the time the 4 days are up before the alarm is raised thousands could be infected and also free to travel were ever they like. Add in a 14 day incubation period and you have pandemic on your hands...
By the time Trump acted and closed the border to Chinese travelers the USA was already carrying a heavy viral load.
The USA continued to import the virus from Spain, Italy , France and most of Europe as they were also carrying a viral load and were in a state of emergency.
But of course Trump had refused to take the advice of medical experts and was not intelligent enough to realise that closing the border to China only, was an excercise in futility. He really needed to do a lot better....
Mind you in all fairness many world leaders ignored the obvious as well,,, Boris Johnston of the UK was one of them....and take a look at what has happened there...
Trumps inaction and stubborn stupidity cost how many of the 500,000 lives 12 month later?
Ask any of the 500,000 that died as a result of his poor leadership and then go on to ask any of the next 500,000.
You see, the cumulative effect is that the USA is going to be crippled by this virus for the foreseeable future until the population take the situation seriously enough to obey simple social distancing rules including mask wearing ( especially in crowded situations) and no, the virus is not going to simply vanish as Trump publicly suggested.
Latest stats appear to reflect that the population is generally starting to get the message and the new case rate is actually falling in many states, the ones that have severe restrictions mandated.
Today in the USA
the total case number :
29,427,000
new cases:
53,600
total death ( CFR)
531,000
days new death
1,941
Do the research and work it out for yourself...
Texas has just announced they are opening up totally removing all restrictions.
the total case number today (04/03/2021) (src: worldometers)
3,564,778
total new cases:
1,160
total deaths:
44,701
total new deaths:
47
It will be tragically interesting to see where the figures go 7-14 days after the restrictions are removed and people relax their social distancing requirements as per Government encouragement.
The Governor, Greg Abbot, may end up in jail for deliberately ignoring medical advice and literally killing thousands due to his failure to protect his community from their own ignorance.
In fact I may run a thread topic on the Texas experiment and record their progress back to the inevitable lock down in a few weeks....it is almost a scientific certainty that Texas will be back into severe restrictions with in a few weeks. Same goes for Mississippi. Perhaps the world needs to prepare for a Texan mutation?
There is also the issue of the latest and greatest mutation from Brazil that is already being seen in the USA that appears ( the studies are ongoing) to be able to avoid the vaccination regime. If so then the world is going to be in pandemic status for a few years yet...
History will show that Trump's willful incompetence has cost the USA a staggering amount not only in human terms but in economic ones as well..
I hold him personally responsible for the death of 10's of thousands and I am not the only one.
As in Brazil the president there ( a trump clone) is also responsible not only for a significant portion of deaths so far but also the consequential mutation that has emerged in the Amazonia that has the potential to kill millions.

over half a million dead ...
do you have any links you can post showing trumps orders to lock anything down ?
the only orders i recall is him ordering the media that it is all up to the state governors & that he is "incapable" and "it is not his job"
to do anything
he then made threats to "step in"
I noticed your point on smokers a few posts ago... Didn't you know that apparently they found that smokers had a 4% less chance of contracting the virus than non-smokers?Those numbers are telling me people must take care of their health and stop smoking cigarettes
Actually you may have a point... have you seen any stats on political affiliation vs CFR?Sure, the damn virus must be a Brazilian republican, right?
so you still do not accept that the disease was considered infectious from as early as December 2019. The scientists new quite a bit... especially since 400 million Chinese were in lock down at the time...(23/Jan/2020) (Trump's Chinese travel ban 31/Jan/2020)History is already showing president Trump did what any scientist will do in front of an unknown disease: trial and error.
I think it's more his lying about it to keep his numbers up that people condemn him for. At the same time he was telling people it would go away like magic in April, he knew how deadly it was. "This is deadly stuff. You just breathe the air and that’s how it’s passed. And so that’s a very tricky one. That’s a very delicate one. It’s also more deadly than even your strenuous flu.” And still he didn't mandate masks - and even told his supporters that if they wore one, it indicated they didn't support him.History is already showing president Trump did what any scientist will do in front of an unknown disease: trial and error.

Of course though the down side is that a smoker is more likely to end up on a ventilator and subsequently dead than a non-smoker...

Do you know how the virus covers the lung membrane? Well, the virus does the same when it attacks this organ. It make it worst the already blocking condition. And you say smoke prevents better against the virus.

Thee earlier infections were detected years ago. Yo better check the records again. Point is that this virus is a weak virus. No need for extreme measures.

trial and error! bizarre statement!
Look, any president could have made the same. Today you even laugh because today you understand more about the virus and you can play the intellectual who knows everything about it.
But in January last year you were hidden in your basement, afraid that even your image on the mirror will pass the virus to you. Come on.
Have a brief read of the following study. Especially the introductions etc...Oh, yeah? Whom paid for those studies... Marlboro company?
Damn Marlboro doing laundry of money thru French organizations...Have a brief read of the following study. Especially the introductions etc...
https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04583410
The French even had to restrict the sales of nicotine patches.
Also, remember the reaction of Democrats and fanatics against president Trump because the closing of entrance to Chinese people, and it should be greater if the closing of entrance to the US was to include other countries. The whole media except Fox News was against president Trump, you can't deny this fact.

You don't make estimates about deaths that way.
