I'm.not making any arguments. I'm reading and thinking and sharing both. Plenty of people on here say "China is lying". They also say "freedom.of speech is essential in China". Doesn't the same apply to HK? If we all think the same we are all guilty of being in an echo chamber.
I agree with lockdowns and restrictions to get this under control. But only to give us data and options. The next steps need to be considered. So far the only person in power saying anything interesting on that is the NY Governor talking about testing for antibodies so that people who have had it can get back to work. That was a good starting point (obviously they need to get a test first) but at least it seems to be the start of a science based strategy to move forward.
