Rationing appears to have started in London, at least informally. “In normal times we will give most people the benefit of the doubt. That has changed." '[F]or some patients [getting a ventilator] would not be in their best interests." https://t.co/3WEwRy4dSg

Why aren't TENTS in now-empty parking lots an obvious solution. 1) Cheap. 2) Ventilation 3) Could provide testing, treatment even if homeless wandered off 4) Flexible–beds could be spread out 5) Won't require sterilizing buildings 6) Neighbors less likely to revolt. https://t.co/FrUuuzQtcg

30 more days. Not so bad, right? I mean we've been doing this for weeks, right? But won't it become harder and harder, if virus is still spreading to more in the community (R0>1?)–making it more and more dangerous to go out at all (eg food shopping)?

"I want our country back. I want the world back." Trump had some good moments starting around 40 min into this (including passing up a chance to bash the media for not carrying these conferences) https://t.co/MyWxvjezRq

30 days is really a long time … for Trump to stay at home without doing something to upset the apple cart and call today's decision into question. Might have been better to go 15 days at a time?

Note Prof. Lin doesn't yet recommend wanton wearing of masks.:
"– At current infection rates and in normal activities, most people would be wasting masks.
– But masks would be useful in proximity with strangers (airplane, train, Uber/Lyft, and especially hospital or clinic)."— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) March 28, 2020
