 Covid-19 Live Updates: White House Embraces ‘HerdImmunity’ Declaration (AKA  cull the herd)


According to my math:

Take the US population of 331 Million
Herd Immunity is achieved at doubtful 40%  = 132 Million People would have to get the virus.
The Current death rate is 2.7 % but benefit of doubt lets say its 2%
That would imply that 2.6 million people would need to die  to achieve this herd immunity - 
at 40%. In reality it's probably more like 70%. 

Is THIS country OK with THAT # - REALLY? 

I'm going to have a whisky ...

Bloomberg: Since the pandemic, we’ve had the U.S. and China both say they are developing their own respective digital currencies, and now Christine Lagarde the head of the ECB, mentions that the “ECB is seriously looking at the creation of a digital euro…  She also says that the new digital euro wouldn’t “ever” replace the euro, just be a supplement to the cash euro.”  

This is probably note particularly good for the Bitcoins of the world.
