It would have been possible in the USA, but we've seen a failure in leadership to prevent the spread of the virus.
If we had taken decisive action in January or February, we would have had enough resources for contact tracing, and really limit the spread. Instead we'll see at least 200K deaths from this before it is over.
Looking at the new case counts for the USA vs. the EU makes me sad and angry.

When 2 Mother's Day gatherings account for 50% of the cases in Santa Cruz county, what can you do short of saying "You're a moron." It probably also doesn't help that a lot of Arizonans travel to California at this time of year to escape the heat.
