The medical experts say that if we don’t stay locked down the infection rates will soar and people will die. Economist say that if we don’t get back to work the economy will completely crash and people will die.
They’re both right.
Yes, but that again misses the larger point. Minimizing the economic impact meant minimizing the # of cases via a national shutdown and ample testing. The fact that we still haven't implemented a national shutdown is a sad joke-- and means the economic impact will likely be long standing while random states continue to ebb and flow in their handling of the situation.
