Mr Flintstone Yep. If they had stuck to the basic advice (wash your hands, isolate if you have symptoms, stay away from at risk relatives) things would have gone a lot better. They could have simply paid wages for a two week period where a person was in isolation. For sure it would have cost a lot less.

Correct, because it's killed a lot more than Ebola.

Largely because Ebola wasn't nearly as contagious.




The point is clearly that ebola has a death rate of up to 90% and C19 currently 0% (that doesn't mean 0 people) in most places.

Yes C19 is highly contagious but highly unlikely to kill you.

The media behave as if it is.

JK2006 Yes personally I've found Long Tail quite tricky to cope with so I think some of the consequences of having it mildly can be less trivial than at first thought.
Carlos I see you've reduced it to "a trivial virus for 85% of people" ?
