[ExI] next county

Well, I realize I am not following the reply instructions since I do not
agree with John, but I'll mention again that the IFR for CV-19 in general
doesn't warrant the amount of economic damage that has been done here, and
that the IFR in non-elderly/non-serious preexisting conditions community is
extremely low.   I still have seen zero evidence that this is much worse
than the flu from a fatality rate standpoint in anyone who is healthy and
under 60.
