OF, believe it or not, the video didn't tell me anything new. It's been a depressing last couple of days reading through the news and coming to the same conclusions. Am I prepared to see reports of 1 million Americans dead over the next 12-18 months? ...
The video didn't explicitly address one issue: reinfection. There have been reports of people falling ill again (or testing positive) after appearing to recover (or testing negative). This is not easily explained and could lead to real problems (more transmission) if recovered patients act with a false sense of immunity. However, the analysis in the video could silently account for this given their projection of a summer peak.

A tweet I read from an Italian used this phrase to describe govt efforts to limit contagion: "it is like war." Well, it *is* a war of sorts; wars are large-scale efforts won by armies that work in sync.
We're about to see who's a team player and who's not.
