Looking at the alarming graphs of the Corona virus pandemic, it looks like a long term disaster. This is because people focus on the total world figures, according to this artcle. When looking at individual countries, each one follows a similar trend, namely a bell-shaped curve that lasts for 6 to 8 weeks, peaking at 2 to 4 weeks and then tailing off. The virus spread to different countries at different times, so we have to look at countries that were affected first to see what is happening now. Once countries are over the peak and loosening restrictions, it is important that they do not allow a fresh spike from people coming in from countries that are still in the middle of the curve. www.jpost.com/Opinion/S…
