Masks are useless if someone sneezes or coughs near you.
Because the virus is far smaller than openings in most mask materials.

I would begin with INDIVIDUAL responsibility FIRST, and what could help is massive education program by the government via TV Ads

What exactly you mean by “The public health measures will ultimately be far more important”?

You want forced quarantines? Where is the manpower or money to monitor and quarantine 330 million people?

That is _exactly_ what I want--in each state.

Wyoming needs to protect the people of Wyoming.

PA needs to protect the people of PA.

That is what the National Guard is for.

That is what the State Police is for.

If they need more people, ask for volunteers.

If they don't get enough volunteers, then draft people.

If the Feds can help, great.

But--at this moment, either you win or the virus wins.

There are no other options.

There _will_ be forced quarantines, btw, regardless of what _I_ want or _you_ want. Soldiers with guns.

The only question is will it happen early enough to matter.

I guess they will have to take the money away from the non-essential functions they have now--there are certainly plenty of those...
