There's a good quote cited often on Strong Towns: "problems have solutions, predicaments have outcomes". We're in a predicament. We blew weeks, maybe months ignoring the problem at the federal level, so now we don't have the PPE or testing and tracing infrastructure we could have had at this point that would allow some cautious, yet safe reopening in places. The stay home orders work, but they're devastating to the economy. Reopening in an unsafe way would be devastating to both the economy and public health: smart people are going to stay home anyway because they don't want to get sick and die. There are no 'good' options at this point. Something like this plan seems like the best bet, but we need to get supplies and infrastructure on line as quickly as possible, and understand that the federal government isn't likely to be of much help. https://www.nga.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/NGA-Report.pdf https://www.nga.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/NGA-Report.pd...
