I don't really get all the debate, the facts are pretty obvious.
We knew 2 weeks ago(and probably even before that) the only things that work would be to have a 30 day shutdown or do what South Korea did. Since we did not have preparation like South Korea we had 1 option, the Fed government has STILL not enacted the only option that is factually proven to work. Complete failure at that level. It's not a question, the facts showed that was our level of knowledge.

We can't rely on a cure

So 2 small studies, and 2 different outcomes, yes this has as many issues as the French one, why did Placebo group recover so quickly etc...But we know for a FACT the drug cocktail will not prevent people from getting the virus but may limit the time they have it.

More facts: 10-20 times more people will die from this compared to the regular flu if we did not act. Even the most positive analysis can only get this down to 3 times more deadly than the flu. The 1 controlled experiment on the cruise ship, adjustment for age, came out with .5 vs .1 for the flu. So the current facts in the 1 controlled environment says it is 5 times more deadly. Also fact it is has a R0 almost twice that of the regular flu, so now you need to double the 5 times as many deaths to 10 times, oh, but wait, the incubation period is almost twice as long so now we are at 20 times the number of deaths than the regular flu.

Fact: Up to 20% of people hospitalized with coronavirus in the United States are young adults between ages 20 to 44, a new federal study shows. Thus the plan to put young people back to work will still overburden the medical community

Fact: Presidents get bumps in approval ratings during crisis, Trumps has gone from 42-44 on overall approval and around 50-55% approval of handling of Virus, based on multiple polls and adjusting for poll bias, this is compared to Bush who went from 60% approval to almost 90% after September 11 and his big decision was a war based on non-existent weapons of mass destruction. Trumps ratings are poor relative to other Presidents during a crisis and it will be temporary like any other time, amazing how poor the favor-ability is in a crisis, might be unprecedented lack of improvement, why would supporters think these numbers are good is beyond me. Remember more than 50% of the people voted for Hillary Clinton, so Trump's numbers are meaningless at this point in time and the facts show he has not made the correct decisions so far, not a debatable item.
