Sure, but it's far from clear what the side of caution is.
Naively, the side of caution would be to not disturb the education of our young, and that preventive care still works, and the other big public health problems we do know how to fix.
Yet, we see country after country opening restaurants while schools are still closed. This with a disease we know is less prevalent and spreads less among the young than other epidemics such as influenza. The side of caution is completely missing from this picture.
