There were a lot of early clickbaity conclusions that frankly seemed like someone just logiced it out in their head got a lot of attention... but IMO didn't really have much data to support them in any way.

Lots of "Why in this country is?" "This place is doing well because."

And then a few weeks later the data shows that's simply not the case and you realize the concussions in those articles had little to zero data supporting it.

Personally I look forward to hearing about good data years from now about this pandemic.

That's what's so tough: we're all flying blind, but our actions have very, very real consequences.

In the Lombardy region of Italy, they kept the bars and restaurants open and had this Milano non si ferma! (Milan doesn't stop!) campaign. The results are tragic.

In the Veneto region of Italy, the governor listened to some experts, and the results have been significantly better.
