    Luck ain't got nothing to do with it.

    Bad preparation, bad leadership, bad planning, bad response

    Bad luck in that a new virus cropped up not in the reaction by national bodies.

    Just heard a rumor BP is closing it's doors in Houston until April 15th. Not sure how accurate that is but anyone else in that industry have any insight?

    We will see what will happen.

    I am very perplexed by what the UK is doing.
    Boris Johnson came out yesterday and said in a public speech that many people will lose a loved one but we aren't going to take any measure like closing down schools, games, and restaurants.

    They want to bet on herd immunity.
    This means they will let most people get infected while supposedly keeping the risky population protected.
    I don't see how this is feasible to protect the people at risk while everybody else gets infected at the same time.

    They are playing with fire and people's lives.
    The NHS isn't a healthcare system to bet on with such risky strategies.
