Regardless, we obviously can’t execute on it, for reasons of incompetency, culture, faith in government, etc. And even if we could, it would take months to scale to where we’re testing millions per day like we’d need for that strategy. Millions would die by then. So given where we are today, and the resources we have today, what would you do?

So, no, that will not work unless we have billions of tests and we test every citizen 3 times a week. Given that we don't have tests, and we cannot test every citizen with force; this is not gonna work.
