- jiggawatts 4y agoI mean that it literally won't matter what the official policy is. Eventually COVID will become so virulent that no amount of lockdowns will stop it spreading. E.g.: by the time a case is detected and a lockdown enforced, it'll have spread too far to contain. Rinse and repeat and there will be "hotspots" everywhere, impossible to contain.
- slaw 4y agoIt is impossible to contain now and China's dictatorship doesn't care.
- jiggawatts 4y agoIt can become even more virulent. Much more. To the point that containment becomes obviously futile. Right now, it is "working", for some definition of that word. Eventually there won't be any definition of "working" that will remain true.
