Except they don’t spread exponentially like some startup hockey stick growth chart. They might start exponentially but eventually it gets harder and harder to find the next host to the spread peaks and eventually declines. The chart of a virus spread is not really exponential at all.
Way too many people took “exponential growth” way to literally, causing panic and mayhem.
- pasabagi 5y agoI had a look at your post history, and obviously, I don't agree with your ideas about COVID - but I'm curious, what got you so emotionally engaged? I've had some relatives die, I've spent large portions of the pandemic cooped up inside with kids, I've missed funerals, etc - and I think earlier in the pandemic, I was probably about as emotionally engaged as you are, except, in the other direction. Now, I don't really have much of an opinion about it. Why do you continue to care?
