The key question is that of the efficacy of the mitigation measures. Massive infringements of personal and economic freedom can only be justified if there is strong proof for their efficacy, hence, they require constant and strict validation. This validation must, of course, take into account the delay between covid infections taking place and being registered, and between the registration of new cases and a surge in hospital cases. Nonetheless, this delay cant be a carte blanche to skip the validation of the measures.

Labmate's husband is a pediatrician. He's being called to ER shifts. He hasn't treated an adult in 5 years.

Boss is an oncologist. He's never worked an ER shift and only does clinicals one day a week. He's about to get pulled.

Ah yes some mitigation efforts don’t seem to be 100% stopping spread, since these efforts are based on human compliance to begin with and inherently flawed, so let’s not perform mitigation efforts

To be honest it’s totally out of control and the increased death numbers you are seeing and will see will reflect this.

Nursing ratios are absolutely atrocious and you see delayed vitals, meds being delayed, all orders being delayed

Lab techs behind and u have labs that coming back hours to half a day later

Imaging techs behind

This is just in my city. And as I reiterate this is for every admitted patient, not just corona patients. Having an extra 100k hospitalized really does create havoc

I am not disagreeing that the early lockdown was unnecessary in 99% of the country. Cruel reality is nobody knew how rampant it was, if you were on the cusp of a NYC or Detroit. Without data you are flying blind. Hindsight has shown that lock down to be a miscalculation, but doesn’t change the inevitability that will be the next 1-2 months. We actually will see 300k dead by the end of this year which by American standards should be considered a complete failure

That's fucking insane. It's sad that Republicans have allowed it to get that bad.
