 DS> Really -- where is it under control?

 GD> There are counties within states that have no COVID-19. 

And what about the counties around them?  The fact that they do not yet
have verified infections of covid-19 does not mean that they will not
get them, or that they may not already have untested infections.  It
will not be under control anywhere until it is under control everywhere.

It cannot be said that it is under control until after the infection has
hit, and then beaten.

 GD> I remain that confident that we will get through this.

Of course we will get through this -- but at a high cost, both in human
life and economically.  The cost would have been less if we, as a
nation, had acted sooner -- but we did not and are now paying the price.
