You think this spike will “threaten the future of the entire nation”?

I dunno, countries in Europe had far worse spikes in March but 4 months later are returning to normal. Their future wasn’t threatened. I would say the future would be threatened if they did nothing about it but they haven’t, they’d re-implemented containment measures for a period of time. Australia won’t dissolve over this spike. I reckon 4-6 weeks of extra containment.

Now “threatening the future of the nation” would be responding like the US or Brazil have, totally ignoring it and then responding in a half assed way after bodies were lining up at hospitals.
