COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

I have no idea on statistics but I would imagine there weren't many people that had cars in 1918.

So I looked it up. According to this article there were 5 million registered vehicles in the US in 1917. There were about 103 million Americans in 1917. So would 5 percent of the population no longer driving be enough to increase life expectancy? I have my doubts on that.

Dunno but our society is far different now. I dont think this society could handle losing their toys or having to be self sufficient.
