We don't care if their discussion is classified since they are about to take a decision which leads to public measures/declarations.

What's important here is the decision.

- Nothing, which means the production must continue whatever is the cost (good news for financial markets, sign of a strong leadership !)
- More healthcare cuts to help medium and big businesses, and believe me the big businesses are beautiful.
- ...




Well ofc you can make w/e assumptions you like. But all I am commenting on in that I think is was a great idea to make those deliberations... classified.

The govt said all existing visas, except diplomatic, official, UN/international organizations, employment, project visas, have been suspended till 15 April

The govt also said all incoming travelers, including Indians, arriving from or having visited China, Italy, Iran, South Korea, France, Spain and Germany, will be quarantined for minimum 14 days

India not messing around

Sharing my comment from another thread:

With the astounding amount of information and misinformation being reported, it's probably prudent of everyone to be as informed of the facts as possible.

There are two podcasts I would recommend that people listen to, which have medical experts on them in a long-form conversation where recommendations are made for laymen:

Waking Up with Sam Harris - Episode #190 with Nicholas Christakis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwE0ldRtwGA

Joe Rogan Experience - Episode 1439 with Michael Osterholm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3URhJx0NSw

No TL;DW because everyone should listen to these podcasts if they'd like to be informed.

Dr. Anthony Sauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases:

"Things will get worse." How much worse it will get depends on 2 things, he said:
1. containing the influx of infected people coming from other countries

2. containing local outbreaks within the U.S.

When pressed by lawmakers for an estimate of eventual fatalities in the U.S., Sauci said it will be “totally dependent upon how we respond to it.”

“I can’t give you a number,” he said. “I can’t give you a realistic number until we put into the factor of how we respond. If we’re complacent and don’t do really aggressive containment and mitigation, the number could go way up and be involved in many, many millions.”

Trump will address the nation tonight. Says "I am fully prepared to use the full power of the Federal Government to deal with our current challenge of the CoronaVirus!"
