6. I can deal with them telling me I can only leave the house once a week as long

as I can get what I need when I do. It would suck if I can't go for my morning walk though. I never get close to anyone. It's usually still dark until late spring. I can see that not being allowed because everyone wanting to go visit someone would use that as their excuse.

8. No, we'll just be locked away until they're all dead.

That won't be forever.

Seriously, when the curve flattens it will not be a sign it's okay to go back to normal. That'll be months from now.

When the reported new cases per day gets close to zero we go back to easily doing most things, but even then those few cases can lead to increased new cases and reinstitution of fairly extreme measures unless we continue to socially distance ourselves until the case rate is zero and has been zero for a few weeks.

10. The thing is, they likely won't die if they are young.

They will just spread it around to old people, a lot of whom will die.

Let's wait and see what happens in China when they go back to work and their local business starts up.

16. Here's what the southern Sheriff said:

Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said he wouldn’t support closing beaches. The Tampa Bay region hasn’t seen the same levels of community spread that have occurred in South Florida, where South Beach in Miami has imposed a curfew. He added that, with event cancellations and business closures, people are “going to need some sort of an outlet."
