"Exponential growth is a difficult concept to grasp. One looks at the numbers and they seem reasonable, so you take measured action. But in 3 days those numbers double, and in another 3 days they double again. Suddenly 100 cases becomes 500 and then 2000. The only way to control exponential phenomena is to get ahead of the curve. The charts below indicate that we are only days away from reaching a critical point where the cases will exceed the capacity of our healthcare system."
