By “unchecked”, I mean what will happen if you open things back up and let people go back to work.

Okay. What's the way out? When can people start to go back to work in certain areas? Need a plan.

“Need a plan.”

Here’s the plan.

When the Imperial College published their findings regarding spread, mitigation and suppression, that’s when everything changed and the lockdowns really started.

It’s been referenced here and elsewhere many times. It is kind of hard to get your head around at first.

Let’s use my state of Washington as an example - we started social distancing here before any state in the US. Seattle/Bellevue people are some of the most self-centered, passive-aggressive humans in the US.

We started testing here in a big way early, because the UW set up a program to track flu. We quarantined a lot of people, even while the planes were still landing from China.

We are seriously locked up now for most businesses, and everyone is ok with it for the most part. Yeah, it sucks.

Better than being on a ventilator in an ICU.

We watched patient zero in an isolation room being cared for by a robot, while America stared at their navels.

Social distancing is required for a while - I don’t understand why so many people can’t wrap their minds around infections. Break the cycle, buy time, find treatment. It’s no different than in combat and your buddy takes a round in the leg - stop the bleeding, treat the shock, get him to safety.

The scale is worldwide, not just here.

China is toast, folks. The CCP says open for business, but they are running skeleton crews for show. It takes hours to pass thru the temperature scanners for each factory area every day there. Workers are getting sick after they go back to work, but the CCP is NOT ALLOWED to report new cases.

We all need to support our President- but also be safe.
