Mindmeld,
Why the hysteria over something that causes less death?
Like I said in another post, the hysteria was already a given. Conferences were getting cancelled. Sporting events too. My employer sent everyone home. The streets of Silicon Valley during rush hour were eerily cleared up.

And all of that happened before the SF Bay Area issued its "shelter-in-place" order, the first in the nation.

The economy is already shot. That's a done deal. Might as well try and shorten the crisis and not allow it to get worse.

I'm one of the biggest advocates for smaller government on this forum, yet I see the need to issue the lockdowns.
