It would have been so cheap to handle early with more strict policies.

  that's hindsight bias at best. strict policies are not cheap by any measure. the best we could have done cheaply was distancing (and self-quarantining when sick), and drilling that singular message everywhere and all the time. instead, we got lost in the weeds of what-ifs, symptoms, masks, death counts, lockdowns, etc.

    It's been obvious from observation, no hindsight needed, since S Korea's outbreak and handling. And again once you had Italy to compare.
