In a White House press conference on 3.23.2020, President Donald J. Trump assured Americans that the economically painful measures being taken won’t be a more harmful “cure” for the U.S. than the deadly and harmful consequences of the Coronavirus outbreak. The president took the opportunity to praise Asian Americans and to make it clear that a nationality wasn’t responsible for the COVID19 virus pandemic which purportedly originated in Wuhan, China. But the president also addressed an issue that has found a growing number of voices who are making the case that the U.S. economy cannot sustain too many months of a virtual shutdown of wide parts of the economy. “We are not going to let the cure be worse than the problem,” President Trump said. While making it clear that he would listen to medical experts advice, he also wants to balance the health impact with economic impact. As an analogy, the president said: “You look at automobile accidents, which are far greater than what we’re talking about. It doesn’t mean we’re talking about telling people not to drive cars.” Video It is part of an issue that has been raised in media ranging from the New York Times to the Wall Street Journal or various Fox News shows. That topic was addressed by an industry professional who forwarded to MHProNews a link to the following. Per the Daily Wire - “In an op-ed for The New York Times published Friday, David L. Katz, the founding director of the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center, suggests that “our fight against coronavirus” may end up being “worse than the disease.” By taking an “at war” approach to fighting COVID-19 — widespread shutdowns and isolation of the entire population — rather than a “surgical strike” approach focusing on the truly vulnerable, Katz argues, we have set ourselves on the path to “uncontained viral contagion and monumental collateral damage to our society and economy.” The scenario is difficult whatever decision is made. The death toll in Italy has soared. As more testing is done in the U.S., infection cases and deaths have climbed here too. There are those who allege that China is lying about their current death toll and infection rate, as the screen capture below exemplified. Epoch Times Epoch Times is an independent publication that Wikipedia describes as follows. “The Epoch Times is a multi-language newspaper founded in 2000 by John Tang and a group of Chinese Americans associated with the Falun Gong spiritual movement.” The paper self-describes like this, Reporting important news other media ignore. Clear, fact-based journalism without spin or hidden agendas: US, politics, China, world, opinion, business…” Epoch Times Citing Katz, “The data from South Korea, where tracking the coronavirus has been by far the best to date, indicate that as much as 99 percent of active cases in the general population are “mild” and do not require specific medical treatment. The small percentage of cases that do require such services are highly concentrated among those age 60 and older, and further so the older people are. Other things being equal, those over age 70 appear at three times the mortality risk as those age 60 to 69, and those over age 80 at nearly twice the mortality risk of those age 70 to 79.
