Good luck trying to contain the flu that way. SARS-COV2 seems to be very virulent, but not so virulent like flu or measles that it can't be contained.
- sershe 7y agoIsn't R0 for COVID supposed to be much higher than flu? That was one of the major parts of the arguments for lockdown that I've seen.
- eloff 7y agoIt is, but paradoxically it also seems easier to control. Perhaps because while it is infectious through the air, it is maybe not infectious over the same distance - but not as infectious inside a close distance. I'm just guessing really. People say flu can't be controlled in the same manner. But we also haven't done that experiment like we're doing now. So maybe the people who say that are just wrong.
