I live in a more open state but am bordered by crazy lockdown states. There is a clear difference in the attitudes of the residents between the 2 states. It's striking, really. What you've written is demonstrably true...my eyes show me this every day I travel to the closed state from my open state. It's strange and I can't wait to get home.

Imagine if it was proven that the "virus from hell" was already here, circulating in October/November 2019 and that "scary curve" showing a severe spike in march/april 2020 (with the downturn in the parabola in may 2020) was actually only the "last third" of the downward parabola i.e. the true peak of the curve was December 2019/Janurary2020?

If that is proven to be a true reflection of the alleged pandemic (and i think that will eventually be revealed in time) then lord knows how we survived from November 2019 to March 2020.

Simple answer- if you were sick, and didn't know "how bad" it really was, you got over it and moved on.

Panic is contagious and causes a worse result than what would have ordinarily resulted.

Just a theory--
