Tom Rush sent me the absolute best explanation I’ve gotten re the coronavirus:

Dr. Emily Porter explains exactly why staying home is saving lives

It’s Representative Katie Porter’s sister, who is a doctor.

It’s only five and a half minutes long, and it’s very clear cut, not boring. She explains the math of the coronavirus very simply.

You’re gonna watch this and send it to everybody you know.
