@kmedved @tylercowen Although maybe that's too pessimistic on what R=0.8 looks like? If there's a 5% aggregate attack rate, what percentage of people are currently infectious? — PolitiTweet.org

@thecity2 @kmedved @tylercowen Flatten the curve has meant a lot of different things. In some (not all) early usages, people were talking about not necessarily limiting the total number of cases but spreading them out over longer to reduce burden on the health care system.
