We Need A White House Task Force On Reopening The Economy

April 4, 2020 by David Marcus

 

On Saturday President Trump expressed support for the idea, put forth by Fox News’ Dana Perino, of a White House task force focused on reopening the American economy. For several weeks now [...]

So you are in favor of staying sheltered in place indefinitely?  Who knows what the is coming next.

As mentioned before...many things we can and should do here instead. To list only but a few:

 

 

Mass testing of individuals including asymptopmatic ones

Mass testing for antibodies - those who are already immune should be able to go back to work and out and about sooner than others

Free, open source app anyone can install(but isn't required to) where they can see if they were in close proximity to a known carrier. If they were, they need to be quarantined.

Sanitizers and wipes everywhere - like they have in many asian countries. every desk or store or office, hotel room, restaurant table, elevator etc.

We can recommend wearing masks and ensure there's availability but not force it

Enforce social distance in public places including grocery stores and restaurants

Check the fever of anyone entering a public place, like they already do in Singapore and Hong Kong

Any symptoms - need quick corona testing and quarantine

Close down only certain areas which seem to be a hotspot at times so they don't spread it to the rest of the state/country

House mild to moderate infected patients in quarantine in hotels and other empty facilities - if they agree. If they don't agree, we should be allowed to track them(in some countries they use their phone for it, granted they can just leave their phone in their house, but it does seem to be effective in many places) and get to them if they don't stay inside like they should. "but muh rights". Those are no different than terrorists. They have the option to stay somewhere else, if they choose to stay at home there is a cost. Too many are irresponsible and are murdering people by simply leaving their house knowing they are sick.

High risk stay at home for a few months - it's about 20% of the population but only 5% of workforce, so won't have as big of an effect on the economy

 

We can sit here and yap and make excuses all day long but if we don't implement at least some of this we are killing ourselves and our families, full stop.

Good ideas, should this only be applied to Covid19, or include all other infectious diseases that kill people?

Other infectious diseases are not pandemics which we have no immunity or vaccinations for. Honestly not sure how anyone can compare them.

And yet since January 1st, 2020, the seasonal flu has killed almost 129,000 people globally, based on different reporting procedures (I.e. not all deaths attributed to the flu are reported as such).

Sound reasoning and all good ideas. Shame we didn't do this stuff and still aren't doing this stuff until it was too late. It's kind of amazing that if your dog, cat, or.. tiger gets symptoms they could get a quick COVID test back in early February, but us humans...? Nope.

And the crazy thing about it is none of them are my original ideas...I'm not that creative. These are all things that have already been implemented all around us, and have been shown to be effective. What makes it even crazier is none of them are even that difficult, complicated or expensive to implement, yet we're not doing it.

World War Z ftw.

 

Just one question, who exactly is going to implement this and what's the cost?

I already answered every single question and more, not sure what the point of repeating the same questions without even reading their answers is.
