I think it's a fairly simple proposition. Anyone who suggests that nations suspend across the board business operations beyond what is "reasonable", let's say beyond 4/5, is suggesting that we should "crater the economy" because that is what will happen. It's already happening.

And I'm still agreeing with you that Gates does indeed have a great deal of influence and should be very mindful of the human damage this cratering of the economy is going to have. Perhaps he should not comment publicly? But that's his right to do so.

Anyway, I disagree with Bill Gates on this. We need to get everything back up to speed again and still remain vigilant in protecting ourselves from this contagion.
