Do the math for the city of Miami. Then realizing how CONTAGIOUS CV really is, call 240 the low range and 5,500 the high range. Everyone, for themselves, must decide how dangerous it is. But, one person does NOT exist in a vacuum. The person who believes that it is dangerous will try hard to not spread it to the larger society. If they are wrong, no problem. If you think that it will be on the low range and you will act normal. If that is wrong society suffers. It could also rebound onto the ones acting normal. The proper path will not be known for some time.
