It hasn't been wiped out anywhere, but Europe is heading in the right direction while we're setting daily records for new cases. And things have gotten considerably worse, domestically, since the linked article was published on Monday, with hospital systems now on the verge of crisis in Houston and elsewhere in the U.S.
The differences between the U.S. and Europe, with respect to the current status of Covid, couldn't be more stark.

good job of totally dodging my point.
the current Europe strategy only works as long as one hides out indefinitely with distancing and masks, only drags out the inevitability that everyone will get it sooner or later, and isn't a long range plan other than to someone fine with masks and distancing the rest of the their life, and no concerts or ballgames or public squares or group socializing the rest of their life.
half the population is effectively immune from serious effects, a third of the population is seriously at risk. and the middle agers are moderately at risk.
to not acknowledge and take this reality into account in any and all strategies going forward, is beyond insane.
totally ignoring the different universes we now live in doesn't make them not so, and the safe universe isn't going to put their lives on hold indefinitely while the world treads water, are abandoning the safe room as we speak, and again, to not take all this into account in all planning going forward is both totally naive and malfeasance of leadership.
this guy,
becoming this guy some day,
is not a good long term plan.
