“3. The speed of disease spread in the USA needs to be faster.”
That’s daft.
Ideally, the speed of disease spread would be ZERO.
I said the justification for increasing the speed was on point 3...it is actually in point 2. Once daily deaths level off then we are at the half way point for the crisis. If we are too “good” at preventing the spread then the duration of the crisis is extended and more people die for economic reasons.
There is a balance between the disease and the economy - it is not an easy balance to figure out.
