Tradeoffs are hard. Also, objectives when balancing tradeoffs are subjective.
But you can suppress the virus for as long as you want if you are willing to accept the tradeoffs.
- Ourgon 5y agoI'm questioning the definition of a "working" lockdown. I consider the trade-offs to be part of the definition of "working" in such a way that, as far as I'm concerned, lockdown does not work for this disease. This would change if the disease were to have a bad outcome for a larger part of the population or if the demography of the affected population was weighted towards younger people (like the "Spanish flu").
