[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean a real [b]hard[/b] shutdown. No grocery store runs. No McDonalds. No Home Depot. Emergency workers only on the streets, police to nab and send home everyone else. Kind of like what they did in Italy and a few other places to crush the virus spread, not just 'flatten the curve'. In the Post today there are some advocating a hard shutdown as one of three scenarios going forward, but I'm not sure they'd get the public support for that option. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/07/21/toll-covid-19-worsens-us-has-three-options/ [/quote] No because it wouldn't work. We need nationwide testing and tracing along with public health protocols, like quarantine, with teeth. When we merely suspected someone might have been exposed to Ebola she was confined to her house and people freaked out when she wanted to go out for a bike ride. [/quote]
