You said "worst case" is a few thousand. As I look at it now, you're saying 2% of far less than 30%, so, what, 2% of 20%? Still well over 1 million. So by a "few" thousand you mean a couple thousand thousand?
Worst case here is the likes of which we haven't seen since 1918. Worse than Aids, and I don't know about you, but I watched a lot of people die from aids.
