They (Iceland) haven’t implemented a lockdown or a curfew, but they have banned gatherings of over 20 people, advised quarantine measures, and again: Test, test, test. Having widespread testing allows them to isolate those with the virus, and thus, the virus itself. Even more, it empowers Iceland to continue some semblance of life as it normally is — more than many, many other places in the world without the kind of testing operation that they have can say for themselves right now.

Cool. Maybe if Wichita was a rough ridin' island with very few international flights they could try that.

The main part of the article discussed how 50% of carriers show no symptoms. My main takeaway from the section I quoted is just that widespread testing is critical to any control of the virus and its spread.

Iceland has like a 9 month season of social distancing and quarantine every year. Finally worked out in their favor.

I mean we've been saying testing is key for weeks in this thread. Problem is there isn't enough testing capacity yet.

Great we should only need like 500,000,000 tests and we should be able to get this off the ground any minute now. I agree testing and quarantine for those that are infected would be a great exit strategy. I have zero faith that will happen in the near term.

We did really catch a break not having Kobach at the helm during this.

With closed captioning do we really need the sign language person?

His willingness to hand out tremendous amounts of unfounded government handouts is truly historic and has united fiscal conservatives and communists in an unimaginable way.

I talked to one of my best friends last week, known her for 24 years, lost her to MAGA. Anyway, she was shaming the Chinese for what they eat, of course without the slightest bit of irony about all of the foul crap we eat here, that isn't eaten anywhere else.

china closed all theaters again. so, it's probably out of control there. sounds like they may just be planning to give up and let it burn through the population and not talk about it. the russian plan.

if covid19 was out of control in china, we'd know. all of the conspiracy theories re. china is mostly a reluctance to admit that east asian countries are handling this so much better than are european countries and the united states.
