We should have locked down like a clamp but it was far too late.


Look at SARS & MERS. That should have been the initial response but it wasn't and it wasn't just the U.S.. The blame cannot be laid at one countries feet, so to speak. But, and a big but, China did not shut quickly enough, either. Makes no difference because here we are. What if we had done absolutley nothing? What would those numbers look like? It's all to easy to be a hindsight expert with things like this. The take away is what have we learned and what will our response be when there is, not if, another surge? A shutdown would be devestating but people better be ready for another later this year and in '21.
