The Curve is already Flat https://archive.fo/omRp0 According to this article, the virus outbreak started around 60 days earlier than reported thus, the peak we expect soon has most probably already happened and the curve is already flat. I have friends who are certain they had it around new year.  A colleague came back from China in December, sick as a dog, and soon, most employees, incl. their families, were sick with flu-like symptoms for weeks. It's very likely that many more people already encountered the virus which could be proved through antibody tests.  These people could go back to 'normal' life, unrestricted by 'protective' measures. "“Seed date” is a term used in pandemic epidemiology to identify when a disease was first established in a specific location. Knowing that date, or at least an approximate range, allows scientists and data modelers to calculate how far the disease has spread, how fast it’s spreading, and use that information to design effective responses. Determining when a disease originated and implementing effective test-track-isolate protocols is critical to the effective management of infectious diseases. Suppression is a far easier process when you have the cooperation of governments and health authorities who value transparency and knowledge-sharing. Management becomes much tougher when you are confronted with a virus, especially one that spreads as silently as COVID, whose country of origin attempted to hide its existence. When the Imperial College model relied on Chinese data about the origins of COVID-19 and presumed that COVID was seeded in the United States in early January, they were likely predicating their output on flawed input. Because the first confirmed case of COVID in the United States was identified 20 January in Washington State, setting the seed date a week or two earlier must have seemed reasonable. It is not. China went to great lengths to hide the existence of COVID by censoring communication about the disease and ordering lab samples destroyed. They lost control of the narrative on 30 December when two physicians, Ai Fen and Li Wenliang — one of whom has died and the other who has since disappeared — attempted the day before to warn colleagues of cases of “SARS” at their local hospital. China then reported an ”unknown pneumonia” to the WHO on 31 December, and on the same day claimed they had not found evidence of human-to-human transmission." https://archive.fo/omRp0 It's a reasonable  assumption that the virus was introduced in October, with the military sports event in Wuhan. https://bitterwinter.org/the-human-price-of-wuhans-military-world-games/
