But the measures are decreasing the base of exponentiation. If it can be pushed below one, the spread can be stopped - until a second wave or until there is medication or enough testing capacity to test eryone with a cold. With an estimated 2.5 people infected by every person absent any measures, it seems possible to reduce it to < 1.
- SketchySeaBeast 7y agoYes, it absolutely can, and hopefully our changes ARE helping - but everyone needs to realize the lag time between stimulus and response. My thoughts are really more about those people who don't see it as a big deal now - if we do the right things we can stop this, but if we don't do those right things right now it's going to grow, and by the time it hits those people's "oh no, this is a problem" mark, we're going to have another 2 weeks of growth before THEIR changes come into effect. We can't let the "oh, it's not a problem right now" people dictate the course of this pandemic.
