This is devastating. A 50% growth rate is not sustainable. Even the 25% in the days before isnt. As i have already written, even with 25%, the US will have 100mio cases in a month. This is damn.fucking.serious. You may want to dig out your "Mad Max" DVDs and consider them being a documentary very, very soon.

On the bright side, many European countries have lowered the growth rate to 10-15%ish, which is not sufficient but buys a lot of time and may be a sign of actions slowly taking effect. Time will tell.
