There's an overwhelming chance the doctor is right. It's the disparity between great risk if wrong and limited reward if right.
And this is the right advice today, especially in a community where there have been so few cases.

And it's a bit of a strawman...is anyone really advocating not going to work (in PA)? Amazon had a confirmed case in Seattle and they're on self quarantine because they've had a bunch of confirmed cases.


the question is whether or not you trust the number of reported cases to be accurate.

Anyone have a clue what a "controlled pandemic" is?

the newest montco case is a doctor at CHOP in KOP. being treated at Penn and in critical condition. a couple of students from lower merion had contact with him so lower merion is closed.

Matt Gaetz is self-quarantined after coming in contact with the CPAC guy. Recall he wore a gas mask to vote on the funding bill.

Ha! Our local high school is being closed Monday, but only so staff can be trained to teach their classes remotely if needed.

a fire fighter self quarantined after coming in contact with someone confirmed with COVID. That announcement sounds like a backdoor announcement that COVID is in my county.
