its very possible that this virus cannot and will not be contained, so allocating all resources to a Wuhan style quarantine could be a misallocation of resources.
Unless of course the goal is to buy time to develop and field a vaccine or effective drug for treatment
Exactly what the most productive allocation of resources to combat this emerging threat is pretty much a matter informed speculation with multiple contingencies at this time.
This is a developing situation and as the virus spreads into more wide spread populations it could develop in different directions better or worse.
I have a feeling it’s not as deadly as many forecast and we’re in a situation that a lot will get it but not many will die from it.
It seems a bit worse than SARS but not nothing anything to go bonkers over.
