Eh, it's a downward revision in baseline projections.  Can income never earned really be "lost"?

The CBO estimates are also overly reliant on the idea that social distancing and business closures can be sustained (to some degree) until something like a vaccine is developed.  I think it's become quite obvious (just over the past week) that the concern motivating these restrictions is incredibly fickle.  People are moving on.
