Sort of.....started the day down around 900, but has recovered somewhat and looks like it will close down about 355. After two consecutive days of down 1,000, not really a recovery, but maybe its ready to correct.
Unfortunately, there is a lot more about the spread of the corona virus than the stock market. Sure, that is Trump’s one and only metric/concern, but real peoples’ lives are at best going to be really disrupted and worse it will kill some. Also of concern, it’s irrational that the guy in charge of coordinating the US response has run off to a campaign stop in Florida. Hope he delegated authority to get things moving and immediately correcting the shortfalls that have been exposed already. No one will be happier if this all turns out to be a mountain as opposed to an anthill than me.
So ... do you think the Medical sciences can just magically pull a cure out of its butt on demand? Not gonna happen bud. The treatment for cov19 is the same treatment for all other respiratory illnesses. Pray tell what you would add to the process. It’s a pretty straight forward process.
What difference does it make who informs us of what they want us to know about what's happening? Could have hired just about any local TV newsguy for that. But Pence is the veep so why not give him something useful to do other than staying home and playing solitaire.
so the tools used today are so much more advanced. I expect a vaccine by next year at the latest. So far it hadn’t mutated though I expect it will. Remember that 81% show no or minimum symptoms. It’s not Ebola or the plague. It’s a new type of virus similar to the cold or flu. Quarantine won’t stop it only slow it down. Look at the way it’s hopped borders already. There’re likely thousands in the US already exposed and infectious. Science not scare is the best possible path.
