Another reason for caution is that the trial was “only carried out on a few patients”, D’Alessandro emphasised. The Chinese study on March 9 was criticised by many in the scientific community because it was carried out on a group of “only” 100 patients – four times more than the experiment conducted in Marseille. The French government’s spokesperson highlighted this point, stressing the importance of carrying out trials on a larger scale before trying to reach conclusions on hydroxychloroquine’s effectiveness.
President Alberto Fernández on Thursday ordered a "preventative and compulsory" lockdown of Argentina's population to stop the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.
Starting Friday, citizens are only permitted to leave their homes for essential services such as trips to supermarkets and pharmacies.
the President declared.
“We’ll be absolutely inflexible in the enforcement,”
“This is an exceptional measure in an exceptional time, within the framework of what democracy allows.”
The government had already shut borders, cancelled almost all flights with the exception of repatriations, closed schools and mandated a 14-day quarantine for anyone experiencing coronavirus symptoms or traveling from virus hotspots.

Still believe we need the lock downs to flatten the curve and help those who get it bad have time, but the death toll should go down.
Maybe controlled in 3 months??
But good news Novartis commits to donate up to 130 million doses of hydroxychloroquine to support the global COVID-19 pandemic response

Great...
It was just on our local news. One of the two now confirmed cases in Steuben County NY was at a lunch for a volunteer fire department on 3/14. There were over 100 people attending.
Now they are scrambling to find all the people that were there.
And who those 100 people had contact with in the last week.
possibly into the 1000's.
THIS is how this spreads.
Isolate as much as possible, self-distance as much as possible, and in 2-4 weeks we'll be fine.
If there is NO contact, it can't spread.
Just beleive that everyone has it, and treat them like the plague for a few weeks to a month.
It's not that demanding
Bingo! And this was just on the 13th. They were already telling people not to gather, but no enforcement.
People with fingers in their ears. I still have some in my family saying it is not as bad as the flu, nothing to worry about. One is my 90 year old aunt. She went to get her hair done today, because as of tomorrow hair dressers are closed state wide. I have been trying to warn her for weeks, but she just won't listen.
I fully expect her to get it, and probably die from it, which is sad. We won't even be able to go see her in the hospital or attend a funeral.

Hard to see but looks like they are wearing flack jackets and could be possible riot gear in their bags. Where is this and when?

I went and got my hair cut today. Does that make me a bad person?
There was only two chairs in the waiting room, for distancing. Wasn't very many people in there anyhow, and no one coughing and I cleaned my hands later too.
I went to the store to get eggs. Which I can still do under a "shelter at home" order.

I don't know about that, but I have 2 different friends here in California reporting military vehicles spotted in Huntington Beach and Newport Beach. One showed me a picture and the other a video. MAYBE just passing through (IDK), but I have been living in the area for 30 years and have NEVER seen even a hummer around here. Maybe they're here to protect the rich people, it's an affluent area, not the place you'd expect unrest.
I'm not rich.
