Money is running out in weaks – At least we had a taxcut for billionaires. DJTrump
If this happened in 1990 the whole World would be focused on that matter
We are facing too many complex problems, all at once
If no aid is sent, eventually the outbreak will run its course and burn itself out do its rapid spread will it not?
Perhaps it will eventually lead to herd immunity?
Quarantine the entire country, nothing in, nothing out and let it run its course?
Perhaps the disease will evolve and become less lethal if allowed to run its natural course?
Will human intervention make matters better or worse?
