yes talk here also talks about differnet models.

Among the ones in alarm state, one should count Romania as well, 
although not sure they can really do it.  The official orders are almost 
total closure, but implementation is not sure.

Among those in 'gradual' state - appropriate response to an an evolving 
situation, is also France - publicly declared so - a gradual evolution.

There are also those who leave almost all open: UK, if I understand well.

Codogno (Italy) earlier blocking seems to work: two weeks later no new 
cases, apparently.

To understand the different degrees of closure one can read the official 
orders issued yesterday, today ('decret', 'order', etc).

------------------

The medical theory is the following: if each of us (100% of our species) 
stays away from each other, then in 2 weeks time all viruses with crown 
are at hospital.

But the wave is of 3month and a half long.  The difference between 2 
weeks, and 3 months and a half, represents our difficulty  to understand 
it, and it costs us our dearest.

------------------

The China new cases goes up instead of down, but it is still low.  
Chinese declare the event ended, officially.

------------------

The excellent news is the following: social distancing means to stay 
away (more than 1m) from each other.  YOu can do that by staying at home 
instead of going to work.  But you can do that also by travelling 
(provided youre sole in the bus, or so).  One can also share the 
beautiful  view of a sunset outdoors, with a few persons with whom to 
share destiny, but no more.

Another excellent news: one is not forced to isolate all air intake in 
one's appartment, or not breathe while outdoors.  Just to stay away from 
unknown people.

It's not like in other kinds of events which are worse, where you have 
to isolate, stay inside, 'calfeutrer' (fr.), 'caulk'?(english).

There is a new word: 'social distancing'.  It is 'distanciation sociale' 
in French, since yesterday. (distantiation, distanciation, 
distanceation, not sure).
