The evidence we ignored:

  1. The first major outbreak in the US was a nursing home in Kirkland, WA: 40 to 50 percent of all COVID deaths have been nursing home residents
  2. Diamond Princess Cruise crew and passengers had a 20% infection rate or 80% were not susceptible: Latest research has shown that about 80% of the population has ‘natural’ immunity or defenses

We had the data — our brilliant governors chose to ignore it instead fixating on media response and egregiously incorrect projections and grossly flawed models and assumptions.
