We're now entering the territory of what the fallout from closing down the world really looks like. I don't know if this was properly weighed up but there is no mystery to it's inevitable eventuation. Behind the words 'economic collapse' there are people who have lost their jobs and don't have enough money to put food on the table. Those people are desperate and hungry. Ask any tinpot despot they'll tell you things go bad when people don't have enough to eat.

There are no easy answers so it's a matter of choosing the lesser of two evils. If one of those is a police state, economic ruin and violent unrest then you've got to seriously look at the other one.

Meanwhile, when the fuck is the cause of this going to be investigated? Never? In all the media hysteria i've read there's been nothing about demanding an answer to why this has happened and how to stop it happening again. Some vague scientific papers saying it probably came from bats. Some rumours (denied) that it leaked from a lab. That's it. How about definitive answers. This is not theoretical astro-physics we're talking about. The answer is right there in Wuhan waiting for the first thorough investigation to discover it.
