Germany did do better, other countries in Europe did about the same, or worse.

Germany sounds like part of the US and the "other countries in Europe" sound like the south.

The states in the US that did worse are primary in the New England area, NY, NJ, MA, RI, then you have Mississippi for some reason, they have a high HH population, if we go by deaths per cap.

I think SOME of the NJ NY problem is their airports and Europe.

The greater possibility it came from a lab doesn't mean it definitely did, or that it was modified by human actions (GoF).

we don't know.

I hesitate to "believe" anything about this.  The latency period is very concerning, I think.  It is possible this is just something that becomes "routine" over time.  It may be seasonal (or not).  We may find in a couple weeks it was not as bad as feared.  Maybe we all contract it and develop immunity.  Maybe this. maybe that.

I remain cautious about conclusions over a year later.

there have been several scientists that state that the design of the virus point to it being man made

and so far we have not been able to find any virus in bats or any other animal from which this virus might have mutated

135,000 fans at Indy 500 not many masks

Florida is likely to be a shitshow.  New York already is.

The nation as a whole, is doing better than the hot spots.

Take a look at California-- data seems pretty good there, compared to the population and population density.  I'd expect worse, and so far it's not happening.  That's a great sign.

Interesting to go backward in this thread. This is page 70.

If Florida had  turned into  the worst state in the union, it would not have shocked me at all, many visitors, large airports, and of course a lot of elderly.

It's rather remarkable what didn't happen there.

Yes, it is. Lots of lessons learned over the past 15 months.

it also seems many questions remain unanswered or just not agreed upon

if this happens in the future, it seems that we will be very divided again on shutdown/quarantine or stay open.

both sides of that answer seem to believe they are certainly correct

I don't think the best answer is all one or all the other.  Reasonable people can differ on where in the middle is optimal for specific areas.  I think we'd all agree in this case with isolation of elderly to the extent possible.

It seems to me our biggest hit was folks coming in from Europe in the NY/NJ area, which had the worst overall results.

Maybe if "next time", we can learn it's about to hit fast enough and understand something about WHAT is to hit, we can stop travel and isolate returning citizens for a bit and avoid the initial surge, but I have a hunch it will get out sooner or later.
