It’s a big country. We have the space to make more beds. South Korea converted corporate dormitories into facilities to house the less sick, non-critical patients. This also served as a quarantine to keep them out of the public. The strategy worked. They needed a little time to ramp things up and get things read like any country would. But the idea that we need long-term stay-at-home orders, shutdowns and lockdowns is absolutely absurd. Any government who says that is simply a government that is not doing their job. It would be like the garbageman saying we don’t have the capacity to store your garbage, so you have to keep at home this year.
“the idea that we need long-term stay-at-home orders, shutdowns and lockdowns is absolutely absurd.”
Agreed - we need an exit strategy.
