I’ve seen a poster issued by the CDC in my local food co-op which is a throw-back/takeoff on the World War II slogan which first appeared in Great Britain during the Blitz: “Keep Calm and Carry On”. This latest version reads: “Keep Calm and Wash Your Hands”. That we can also do.
Super comment
Very meaningful

Called to serve in Vietnam after graduating from High School in 1965, and again for the first gulf war, the mantra for survival was to eat when you can and to sleep whenever possible because you never know when you would have the next opportunity. Also, keep low and keep moving. Just like in Vietnam you don’t always know who is friend or foe.
This call to war should be easier. Mabey more tedious, but no less lethal. Instead of Keep Low and Keep Moving. the new mantra is arm yourself with your TV remote and wait for the all-clear.
What is most confusing is that this virus did begin in China in a city with chemical and virology labs. Aching held back news, then somehow reduced all new cases in 6 week period. Russia has few cases,
But, Italy, Germany, Spain, France and US are all still increasing new cases and deaths.
I’m not saying it’s a conspiracy mind you, but if this goes on it will destroy the US economy as we know it. The bankruptcies, job losses and way of life will change.
And for states like bankrupt Illinois, California, N J, Conn, Etc. With huge public pension deficits, exploding due to loss of capital and earnings from funds, the day of reckoning with accelerate.
And when we all have less, even the billionaire and millionaire class, who will the get more tax money from.
It going to get uglier, sooner.
There is no critical thinking at any level of either party.
Just pander to base.
Chilling.
