I feel you Leo. It is just an earlier start and the same response as the USA. Some people understood it, but there was no way to shut down the system with less than 100 cases. People called bullshit. The leaders compared the polls of opinion to the science, and opinion won.
If you'd like another conspiracy, it is better to lead out of a crisis than avert one.
I don't believe that was the thinking, I just don't think the leaders understood the math.
The Seduction Of The Exponential Curve
In mathematics, exponential trends go on forever. In real life, they inevitably end.

I guess Apple saw my photo of the empty stores in NYC and decided to close all stores for two weeks. Patagonia closed all stores and operations too.
My wife had to pop a Xanax after attempting to do some food shop yesterday. I've never seen her car so packed with bags yet say she couldn't find anything. No meat, milk, eggs, pasta, toilet paper, paper towels....
We do have lots of cereal, but since no milk we'll have to use all the alcohol she bought.

Master of the Metaphor
I put my phone down for 12 hours and turned off my tv. Slept good. Read a book. Drank a beer. (Not in that order).
Today my wife and I plan to come up with some type of schedule to keep the kids busy for the next 2 weeks. Seems if we’re going to have to work from home, play teacher to 2 kids, be parents, and deal with the obvious stress, some structure will help.
Right after we come up with that plan we’re doing some god damned car bombs cause it’s St Paddy’s day party time.

The county ran out of chipseal and had to improvise.
Just take some cardboard, cut it into confetti, and toast it. Will you really be able to tell a difference?
I was leaning towards bourbon and Honey Nut Cheerios just cause I like both.
Yeah, gonna need some structure. The kids pretty much think spring break is gonna be a month long. I’m not sure how this will play out with the online school, especially for the 5th grader.
Honestly when you think about it, society answered this problem by telling us to put our kids on the couch for a month with their iPads.
I can’t believe PA closed their parks. If all the state then local parks are closed this is going to be a disaster.
Clarified:
Events and just the parks in Montgomery and Delaware Counties are cancelled/closed

I actually have neighbors exclusively drinking their bottled water because they think they need to. "Because of the virus" they say. I have to just walk away.

Why would parks close? If anything, they would be one of the key escapes during all this.

Apparently Germany, France and to a point the UK have decided to ride this thing, seal the borders and count on their hospital better capacity, no lock down as it happens in Italy. Personally, I think the hope of the ruling class is to weed out the sick and elderly and save a ton on government paid pension and health care in the long term. But I tend to be malicious. They also don’t really know how many cases they have on their hand yet. Thoughts?
