> The museum says it is nonsectarian, non-political, and that it does not proselytize.[4][5] The former president of the museum, Cary Summers, said the goal was to "reacquaint the world with the book that helped make it, and let the visitor come to their own conclusions. ... We don't exist to tell people what to believe about it".[5]
> Although the possibility of transmission from an asymptomatic person has been reported (https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2001468), little is known on how Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spreads from person to person. Generally speaking, with most respiratory viruses, people are thought to be most contagious when they are most symptomatic. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/about/transmission...
That CDC link [2] states that:
> People are thought to be most contagious when they are most symptomatic (the sickest). Some spread might be possible before people show symptoms; there have been reports of this occurring with this new coronavirus, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.

That doesn't state that it can't, only that it doesn't. Also, I am wondering about other GANs/image generation systems and not just TPDNE specifically.
> As we move into manufacturing laptops, the factory will provide an ideal environment for research and development. We now have the resources to create more accurate prototypes in-house to get an up close look at various materials, chassis builds, keyboards, and more, empowering us to create a computer fit for the incredible creators, makers, and builders of the world.
The numbers don't need any mitigating factors but those do exist as well. I don't see South Korea doing anything more extreme than what could be done in the US so that doesn't show the US would be worse. The population density of South Korea is 15x that of the US so that would probably mean the infection rate would be lower in the US. The median age is also higher in South Korea and since this disease affects older people more that would also make the outlook for America better.
"it's plausible that more than half of the population could get it, and leaders of many western countries have acknowledged that."
Will there ever be apologies for spreading mass hysteria?
