    I see lots of people saying China didn’t actually beat the virus and it’s all a big cover up. I guess anything is possible but it does raise the question...if China couldn’t do it after months of extreme lockdowns, surveillance etc how are other countries hoping to with the half-hearted measures they are putting in place?

    • I think, we need to figure it out. lockdowns and isolations buy us time. an approved vaccine (maybe a year away) is what is needed.uan
    • uan you are in Switzerland? How are things there?yuekit
    • curve looks like flattening (at least we think it’s showing progress) after 2weeks of lockdownuan
    • we still have till 19th april to avoid as much contact to others as possible. but will have to be extended eventually.uan
    • prognostics from the weekend: best case 1000 deaths (for 8mio population), worst case 100000 deaths. reality will be somewhere around 22000 fatalities.uan
    • and this might be of interest for other countries: this is the first wave. they expect a second one in october/nov.uan
    • Ha. Real discussion.
