How is someone going to accidently come into contact with someone? I mean that's kind of a 2 way street, both people have to be out and about.

Even in England, when they were getting bombed daily, they were working. The RAF fended off the German air raids well enough to protect their industries well enough to continue the war effort. It's what saved them really. The fact that they didn't allow their economy to collapse allowed them to survive the war in better shape than most conquered countries. |

When a patient presents to the hospital with bacteremia there is a pretty clear protocol that is followed: first you get blood cultures from two separate sites to ensure that a contaminant doesn't give you a dirty result. From there, you begin treating aggressively with empiric therapy. After the culture and sensitivity results you continue treating for two weeks past the date of the first negative culture.
You don't stop at day three. If you want the ability to get back to life sooner, you need to stop adopting half-assed solutions that are likely to delay resolution and worsen the underlying cause. The reason why public health experts want two straight weeks of declining infection rates isn't to inconvenience you--it's to ensure that it is safer to go outside. The reason why we want more testing before opening up isn't to put the shackles on you--it's to better understand the spread of the disease and find hotspots before they fester into conflagrations. I used to have to talk to heart failure patients before they were discharged from the hospital. We'd explain to them the mechanism of the disease, why they took the drugs, what the benefits were, what the risks were, and what lifestyle modifications they need to make. We didn't do it to limit their freedom--we did it to keep them safe. If this was a disease that only you could catch by going out and flouting these rules, then I'd be more than happy to let watch you let loose after explaining the risks. But it doesn't just affect you. |
