the right wing people are already up in arms at the lockdown and the economy tanking, they wouldnt just roll over a listen to hillary and her gaggle of techno-experts either. As bad as the Federal response has been at least some Republicans have been willing to go along with it because of Trump. They'd have resisted at every possible turn if it was Hillary starting a national Federal lockdown.
Hillary would not have gutted the federal pandemic response team because she is a technocrat who loves bureaucracy. The people who actually know what they're doing would have been able to execute at least some of their plans. This would have made a difference, although it would not have solved the whole thing. A lot more went wrong than the absence of shutdowns.

It don't need to be a box on the next movies. It can be a box. But don't do Cargo Culting*.



* but doing Cargo Culting would made sense in a Dune movie, since Dune is about science and religion so much.

idk. she posted a Candace Owens tweet (lmao by itself) that said nobody was reporting flu or heart attack deaths cuz it was all being rolled in to covid counts. I asked my aunt "if that were true, wouldn't the death count be significantly higher?" and she just said "I don't trust anyone any more and just want to get back to normal!!!!"

Yeah they would have ordered masks and ventilators before late March at least.

Anyone pretending the response would be functionally equivalent because "neoliberalism" or whatever is being kinda silly and reductionist.

When did we start hating joggers? I wanted to try and get to that point again so it's good to have goals. I'm more against bike riders in the middle of the road 2 or 3 wide when they have a bike lane and could just go single file *shrug*

When this simulation was all over the news last week:

https://www.foxnews.com/tech/scary-simulation-reveals-jogging-dangers-during-coronavirus-pandemic

Since then a few places have said it's not sound science yet, but I dunno if I really need an 18-month study to know that joggers breathing hard are blowing whatever's in their lungs out into the world.

I've been staying away from the areas you often find joggers but, yeah, they sometimes sneak up on you from behind.

don’t mistake a fetish for plans and middle management as competence.

Hillary would’ve put Robby Mook in charge of a public-private partnership with a company you’ve never heard of to make an app to coordinate hospital supplies.

very slightly fewer people would have died. it would still be a preventable calamity.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
So I've been working through the PPP process for the business I work. We're in a boat where we're kind of affected and kind of not, but the residual economic impacts are causing most of our clients to delay payment and having it will be very helpful if things get really bad.

anyways it took about a week to get approval and confirmation that the funds were reserved and will be another 10-12 days to actually see it hit the account. We can weather that without any problems but 20+ days of no business and payroll for a restaurant is basically curtains.

very slightly fewer people would have died. it would still be a preventable calamity.

It would have been basically the same pattern with different numbers: ventilators and PPE ordered earlier, more tests, fewer hospitalizations and deaths, maybe lower CFR. We'd still have multi-month lock downs and the associated economic effects, and probably even less appetite for socialist solutions like the extra $600 in unemployment or the proposal for Medicare to cover all covid costs, since there wouldn't be Republicans in power to inspire people towards socialism.
