The news out of New York today proves my point.

Did anyone really think this would be a “V pattern” recovery. For the most part it’s always been easier to go downhill than climb uphill. You can even jump off a cliff and arrive much faster (seems like we did this) than any baseline situation climbing back up. Just a go slow period back up, maybe with a few decent spikes nothing more. People will figure it out.

Apparently, the FedEx CEO thought that.

”It also means that the fatality rate of the virus is likely lower than the figure that’s based only on confirmed cases and deaths. Officially, New York has reported 15,500 deaths. If 2.7 million people have been infected, that would put the fatality rate at around 0.6%.”

Huh?
What does this have to do with your statement about China doing it right?

Simple, china saw early on that creating panic was more harmful than just moving on. These almost daily studies are all showing the same thing. Millions have had it and didn't even know they did.

I heard the BBQ bat is outstanding! Definitely try it when you hit the wet market.
