How exactly do you face up and fight a pandemic? Are we supposed to grab our rifles and go hunt it down?
It really shows you just how weak and pathetic these sort of people are. My grandfather's generation had to go kill people in Europe and Asia to defend the lives of their fellow Americans. All that's asked of today's Americans, in order to save tens or hundreds of thousands of lives, is to wear a mask, socially distance, stay away from restaurants, bars, etc, until a vaccine is widely distributed. And we can't even do that.
Give people information. Trust them to do the right thing. Give them good incentives. And then get out of our way.
The way it stands now, the government is just preventing people from living their lives. The only ones benefitting now are billionaires and multinational corporations. Brazil and Sweden made the right choices.
What makes you think the government will give up their power once we release a vaccine? Their original excuse was "15 days to slow the spread"
