The knock on effects of that can not be underestimated.
The virus is bad, trying to stop it a must, but will be far more damaging.
IMHO, this end of things has not been considered enough. The economic impact in a worldwide depression that will result from a world economy grinding to a halt then contracting while everyone pays back the debts incurred to weather the storm, then CONTINUES to pull back to build the reserves they realize that they should have had all along... there will be a massive secondary wave of loss of life in future years on a purely economic basis.

After all, there are plenty of other diseases to treat and threats to life other than this one virus - including the threat of far worse viruses (Ebola) out there that require resources and money to contain and treat. Let alone that people just need to eat and have a roof.

VirusKiller, I’m curious. From whence does that username come?
