The COVID-19 pandemic

At this rate we’re only a couple of weeks away from having the most cases ever.

Hard to say what effects the previous changes have, but unless they have a major effect, we're pretty close to guaranteed achieving records, it will take at minimum 2-3 weeks for new policies to start affecting case counts.

This is why we shut down so quickly in March, it's sad to see we've forgotten those lessons.

Different age group being affected this time around. Mostly under 40's, the group that doesn't really give a crap. If there is a bright side, they're less likely to end up in the hospital and less likely to die.

What's not so good: we don't know the affects of this illness longterm.
