Bulls Eye. Just that I think it will not work, but break in the process of implementing it. Chaos necessarily must be the consequence. Chaos in the menaing of: constructive destruction to destroy what is rotten and make room for a new start. French evolution, anyone? Flushed away an overaged aristocratic caste. Why not flushing away money-Keyensians as well? They are not any less rotten by now. The lives saved in hospitals now (or not), may be the lives being lost in what comes after this. The collapse of a civilization - its absolutely possible, it is a realistic scenario. And I mean not just the US, but the whole West by this, and the global financial order. If it happens, we should not shed a tear for it. An old curse: "May you live in interetsing times." Times promise to become very interesting for sure.

This struck me. Somehow I so far had completely escaped to realise this, although it is so open for every eye to see.
There are already several strains of corona virusses around, causing for example the common flu. And we still have not a single vaccine for any of them after all these years.

The UK is facing a "significant period" of strict measures to cope with the coronavirus outbreak, Cabinet Office minister Michael Gove has said.
He declined to predict exactly how long the instructions to stay at home could last, saying the date the virus peaked would depend on how people behaved. Mr Gove said it was "vitally important" to follow social distancing rules. It comes as Boris Johnson has written to all UK households saying the crisis will get worse before it gets better. In the letter, being sent to 30 million homes, the prime minister warned stricter restrictions could be put in place if necessary. The number of people who have died with coronavirus in the UK has reached 1,019, with the latest 260 deaths announced on Saturday. There are now 17,089 confirmed cases in the UK. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-52082781

UK PM Boris Johnson warns things will get worse before they get better.
One of his ministers warns the period of lockdown could be "significantly" long. More than 30,000 people have died worldwide. Spain has a new grim daily record of deaths - 838 in 24 hours. President Trump backs down after saying he is considering a quarantine on New York and two other states. Australia limits gatherings to just two people. In Europe, the number of people killed passes 20,000. Portugal grants residency to all migrants who have applied, because of the pandemic.

This game we have now is about much more substantial factors and needs. Riding the moral high horse is no longer an acceptable option. The many deformations and philosophical excesses that have summed up in the EU over the past 30 years and turned it into a political junk show, must be seriously cut back.

In case you need more proof that Covid-19 is very contagious

What about jails? Perhaps this is why jails are letting so many people go. What about USN aircraft carriers? One already has 23 sailors with the virus and has just now decided to check the other 5,000 sailors onboard. The problem is so bad in the USN that the defence department has decide to stop reporting the names of their ships that have sailors with the virus.

And I have wondered what will be done with all the thousands of ventilators after the pandemic settles down? I say that because my job is in-house maintenance of patient care equipment. Anesthesia machines, some ventilators, all manner of patient monitoring and therapy devices, IV pumps, lab equipment, etc. My exposure level is almost completely contact with equipment that gets cleaned but is still dirty in the hard to reach places and most of it can't be sterilised.

Seasonal influenza is completely different thing. Unfortunately you can't known in advance which strain will be dominant each season. Therefore content of influenza vaccine is essentially an educated guess: sometimes its spot on, sometimes not so.

That is usualy the case. Here I am told it is an educated guess and the seasonal flu vaccines (which seniors like myself get free) usually cover the three most likely strains that the experts feel will be present.
