In the United States, the number of Covid-19 infected is increasing at an exponential rate. It almost doubled in 4 days, going from 65,778 on March 25 to 121,478 the 28th. Americans are now well above the Chinese figures. There is no inflection in the contaminated curve, the first step to reduce the number of deaths.
For deaths, the Chinese figures are stable. They will be overtaken by American figures in the middle of this week. The number of deaths more than doubled in 3 days across the Atlantic. Deaths follow those infected 2 weeks late.
The lack of awareness of the seriousness of the epidemic in the White House will be very penalizing for the United States. Not even half of the states are confined and the White House does not want to cross the course for such a measure at the federal level.
As long as contamination progresses at such a high rate, the Fed or the government can do whatever they want this will be ineffective.
