加拿大卫生部长Patty Hajdu周三表示,加拿大感染人数最终可能达到总人口三到七成,
如果是真的,美国可怎么办?

Between 30 per cent and 70 per cent of Canadians could become infected with the new coronavirus that causes COVID-19, federal Health Minister Patty Hajdu said Wednesday, but that number will depend on the scope and scale of the response to combat transmission. The COVID-19 outbreak is a “national emergency and crisis," Ms. Hajdu told the House of Commons health committee, but public health officials say they won’t prohibit mass gatherings until the virus spreads more widely. “There are a range of estimates, but I would say that it is safe to assume that it could be between 30 per cent of the population that acquire COVID-19 and 70 per cent of the population,” she said.

所有人都是这么预测的,这个都是consensus了。 现在关键在2点。 1.能否延缓传播速度,病人慢慢去医院,否则一窝蜂,医院会崩,mortality就会高不少。 2. 能否开发出特效药。

如果这么高比例的人群都被感染的话,没有得过病会不会受歧视

让歧视来得更猛烈些吧 :-)

美国是9500万人口到1.2亿人口,大家基本也不会逃过。老人估计死得更多。
