Also 2% of 2 billion is 40 million dead. We are 3 months+ since this outbreak started. Everyone keeps talking about how exponentials are hard to grasp, but whats harder to grasp is: fear + exponentials + too_many_unknowns == impossible to plot A feature that everyone talks about is how startups grow exponentially, fine, i get it, but most end up failing and going to zero. What if this was such a case? We ascribe to it an exponential growth path and yet it fails to take off for many reasons like perhaps a dog walking service or WeWork isn't the cat's pajamas?
