For me there is a big challenge for media, there are tendencies to want to portray things as back to normal... but most of the world is not in that situation.

We are now all together on the Titanic, and it's pretty clear that there aren't enough lifeboats and there aren't enough life preservers.

We're just early. We will see surges in other places, it's like a rock thrown into a pond and it ripples out.

It's important to isolate and distance early because it makes it harder for the virus to jump from person to person quickly, when it spreads slower then you have enough beds in the hospitals and ICUs and ventilators to handle the sick.

All data establishing risk, ability to recover, infectivity is crucial in a pandemic, data ought to be collected, transparent as to methods, and disseminated promptly.

If I'm a hospital, I want to know from the people with experience, how did they manage this patient ? i don't want to know this when my first case arrives two months from now. I want to know this now so I can plan and prepare.
