** 19-Jul-2020 World View: Exponential growth
According to media reports, the number of infections is growing
exponentially in South Africa, Brazil, India, and America.
Within the US, the number of infections is growing exponentially in
California, Arizona, Texas and Florida.
I can't make out whether this is good news or bad news. The reason
that it might be good news is that the exponential growth has to
plateau at some point, and if that happens soon, then all of those
regions will reach "herd immunity," and life can return to normal. In
that event, those regions will be far ahead of everyone else, since
everyone in the world is going to exposed sooner or later anyway.
