Time to "Hunker Down More" to Flatten the Curve #Covid19


Time to "hunker down more":
Chiacu, D., & Shalal, A. (2015, March 2020). U.S. coronavirus death toll hits 62 as Americans urged to hunker down more. Reuters, https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-usa/u-s-coronavirus-death-toll-hits-62-as-americans-urged-to-hunker-down-more-idUSKBN2120RY

“I think Americans should be prepared that they are going to have to hunker down significantly more than we as a country are doing,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious diseases expert, said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” Elderly people and those with underlying conditions need to be especially cautious.

....Asked whether he thought U.S. authorities should impose a 14-day lockdown to try to stop the spread of the virus, Fauci said: “You know, I would prefer (that) as much as we possibly could. I think we should really be overly aggressive and get criticized for over reacting.”
It's on my agenda.
