If we rush the re-opening too much, the risk for a "2nd wave" goes up, then the economic recovery will not be V-shaped.

Then it’ll make a backwards “N”, then a “W”, and 2020 growth will be “0”

New World Order confirmed.

What does too much mean?
What does risk goes up mean, up to what?
How will the recovery be shaped?
The recovery for the whole world or just select locations?

I'm beginning to get the idea that most covid hawk arguments are non quantified and non quantifiable noises made to indicate that the noise maker thinks the other side just hasn't thought things through well enough.

Could we pin this topic, so we can look back on it to see who was right? I'm having a good laugh as I read all this.

My prediction: it will go away faster than anyone thought possible, the vaccine will be developed earlier than anyone thought possible, and the economic recovery will be rapid and astounding, as people are chafing at the bit to get back to work and pursue the American dream. Those that were laid off will have enthusiasm for working again, and will start buying again like crazy. And, they will try to buy USA stuff, not Chinese.

Along the way, no fingers will be broken, although there will be many tired fingers, given all the finger pointing over the next year.

Nobody on this board has spent more time quantifying arguments than me.

[Horace]

Well I said most. You have done an admirable job in your deep dive into the numbers.

And all the frenzied typing of "I told you so"s.

That’s from the weekend of May 23. Maybe it will be fine.

[jon-nyc]

At least it’s outside, but still, they looked pretty damn close. It didn’t look like a camera trick.

The thing that will truly rocket up is hindsight
