And the gov says to expect to stay home until June or July. There's no basis for that right now. We've been home for 30 days already and if it's still spreading now, it will be spreading after 45 days, 60 days, 90 days. You can't stop it without a vaccine (which is 12-18 months away) so why destroy the economy any more than we've already done. The test results are delayed 14 days (which is worthless) so what looks like a peak now happened 2 weeks ago. Plus, if we can expand the herd immunity now, the next round in the fall won't be as bad. By keeping people shut in it will just make the next round more severe. And the data is so tainted at this point you can't draw any decent conclusions from it. People will go crazy if they're stuck in the house for another 45 days and that might cause more damage than the virus.
