It's going to be an easy curve to dip since the first batch of deaths were probably corpses looking for a toe tag.

Correct. Including economic data. Economists projected over 2.0 million jobless claims this week, 8 times normal. I’d assume that will continue to increase. Studies have shown unemployment accounts for 1 in 5 suicides. That increase alone could surpass the deaths associated with the virus not taking into consideration other factors like depression, anxiety, malnutrition, substance abuse, etc.


And not a single data point you provided points to anything close to a global economic shut down.

In Q2 of 2008, our GDP contracted by ~2%.

Early estimates have Q2 2020 US GDP contracting by 20%.


That isn't a global economic shut down, either.
