Additionally, worldwide daily case number are growing while daily deaths are dropping. This is a strong indication that the virus is FAR more widespread than anyone thought and far less dealy than anyone thought and treament for the disease has improved.

We're still hitting about 1k deaths a day in the US. As economy ramps up and we have winter to go through this won't just completely disappear. If it does, great! I'll be happy to be wrong about that. But if it doesn't, well...

Hopefully we've learned enough to manage this at the county level going forward. Locking down cities/counties as needed when hospitals get close to capacity. We'll see though.
