Further evidence of this insanity was provided today by the fact that all 3 main stock indices in the USA rose by about 6%. This despite the number of COVID cases reaching 82,000, the highest for a single country. 1100 deaths. With Easter just 2 weeks away the numbers will surely rocket up in that time. But Mr Trump says it will be back to normal by Easter, so no worries.

Deckchairs on the Titanic comes to mind.
