But what if those medical resources aren't available yet? What if we need to wait weeks or months for them, no matter how much money we have to spend? If the entire world needs these things all at once, there is going to be a shortage (and there is). That's a death sentence for a lot of people, an overwhelmed medical system, and perhaps a runaway burden on the health system that no amount of dollars can catch up with. I think that's a large part of why we're shutting down. If this thing got away from us (we can't possibly know yet), a lack of isolation would mean every place that didn't isolate would essentially have an Italy situation on their hands. That's an insane risk to take.
