Because all of the 1.2 million confirmed cases in this country happened among people who already knew they were sick...

The point has been clearly laid out from the beginning. It has been restated on here time and time again, regardless of how far you want to plunge your head in the sand. You lockdown to prevent overwhelming the system and after you have two weeks of declining caseloads you ease up, but keep mitigation and distancing strategies to ensure that R(e) is less than 1.

Those are two entirely separate things and separate goals. And they are not mutually exclusive. |

But I know that that the prevention of overwhelming the system was highly stressed, and the matter of the length of the lockdown was avoided, BECAUSE I ASKED. And I know why it's been evaded, it's speculative and even the speculation hasn't moved from an estimate of months, perhaps more than a year, . . . at least so far as meeting the metrics of 'safe resume' is concerned. Just don't lie. We [the royal we] mentioned generalities about resumption but we predicated quarantine on avoiding medical services being overwhelmed. And the generalities about resumption are and have always been about avoiding 'when do we come out of a bunker' because we're scared to admit 'not for a good while.' |
