Well, @Jaxbuck, you are free to engage in your enterprises of choice now:

In an effort to contain the deadly coronavirus, the Philadelphia Police Department will postpone arrests for low-level criminal offenses beginning Tuesday. The department announced the decision in an internal memo that outlined new protocols intended to limit officers' exposure to COVID-19.

Comments in tweet are priceless. Hope you’re a fan of the second amendment.

They don't WASH their hands. Want to know why Italy and France are getting pummeled? Because only 57% of Italians wash their hands after using the toilet. Only 60% of French wash their hands after using the toilet.

So, do you think the percentage here is higher than that?

So, I looked it up, as best I could, and we're a bit better at 66% according to the interwebs, but still in the same ballpark if your numbers are right.

Good lord people stop using the Italians and French as a comp. They fight diseases like they fight wars.

I want to see how the Huns handle COVID-19. That will tell us what this disease is made of.

FWIW, life expectancy at birth is 83.0 years for Italy, 82.6 for France, 81.1 for Germany, and 78.6 for the U.S. If you change to life expectancy at 65 (remaining years for people who've made it that far), which is maybe a better metric for fighting disease, the numbers are 19.6/23.6 (men/women) for France, 19.2/22.4 for Italy, 18.1/21.2 for Germany, and 18.1/20.6 for the U.S. (not sure why they don't have a total for both men and women for the at 65 numbers). https://data.oecd.org/healthstat/life-expectancy-at-birth.htm#indicator-chart
