More follows...

### - 106,000 found positive yesterday and 120-grand today (and that's
just the ones who were tested whereas 1000's more exist) plus with one
person potentially infecting 5 others and another 3 days to go before
there's any kinda lockdown (they's even considering not bothering now
sheesh) plus with everyone all still traveling about: there's inevitably
gonna be a STORM of infections over the next couple weeks!

done the math yet? figured it out?

or do i REALLY have to spell it all out for ya??

iow then: they've GIVEN UP TRYING to stop it!

(having prolly now decided it's just cheaper that way in the long run heh)
