We'll be feeling the economic reverbrations of this particular political fiasco for decades.

I'd be curious to know if anyone has personal experience, (no hearsay pls) of anyone who actually has a confirmed case of Wuhan virus. I suspect it's all "Aunt Sally says."

Prove me wrong.

"At bottom, John Ioannidis, a respected epidemiologist at Stanford University's argument is the same as Dr. Jeremy Faust’s, who I’ve written about before.

"What if there are a ton more people walking around with asymptomatic COVID-19 than we realize? If there are then the death rate is far lower than we’re estimating."

"If in fact this virus is less deadly than the flu, do we actually want a coast-to-coast shutdown to contain it?"
Well, the political class and the media certainly do.
