About responses - it took about 50 days for Wuhan to be completely locked down. And about 50 days for Lombardy.
in both cases, incremental inter alia countermeasures didn’t work
so what is the logic in waiting for our “50 days” to be up? Why wouldn’t we act sooner given we know what’s coming?,
we seem to be waiting for some artificial, lagging, inaccurate metric of infection / deaths to hit a threshold
