At what point do you plan on resuming public life Asante?
It sounds like even with drastic measures the virus certainly won't just disappear, and most people will eventually become infected, continuing long after closures and quarantines get lifted.
Is the plan for the more at risk people to wait out a vaccine or the initial peak in hospital overload?

Once my government grows the testicles to impose China level lockdowns, then there will be periods where you can roam he streets free of worry, inbetween flareups.
True relief will only come through the vaccin or through catching it, surviving it and having immunity, or the apocalyptic scenario of herd immunity.
In any case, since last weeks's tuesday, numbers rose from 380 to 2500. To morrow it will be awfully close to 3000.
Not now.

The cdc says now it’s ok for symptomatic healthcare workers to continue to treat covid-19 patients. In other words, the loss of healthcare workers is worse than letting them work sick
State department says all Americans should return to the US immediately or risk not being able to come home for a long time

THEY: "well Jeremy's daughter has the flu and his wife is starting to sneeze a bit too."

We had a discussion about the Kaletra (hiv meds) trials in China for treating covid-19. Results are now in: the drug trial has failed.
Reuters: A test in Chinese patients with severe COVID-19 disease found the 99 who received AbbVie Inc’s Kaletra, a combination of lopinavir and ritonavir, fared no better than the 100 who received standard care.to

Awww...
There is some degree of success associated with Chloroquine. Not much but, beats rubbing two sticks together.
Meanwhile, India has cut into the triple digits and Africa is riddled with dots

The same people pushing the Kaletra idea are the ones pushing the chloroquine idea.

We're grasping at straws.
Chloroquine had limited success in China though.
Meanwhile Interferon Alpha 2b is also being tried.
A thing we ALL can do though is take 1000 ie of vitamin D daily, or 5000 ie if you're obese or black in a cold climate. Its a home remedy that might slightly improve ones odds. At least it costs dick, picked up 360x 5000ie softgels for $10. Added 50mg zinc as gluconate, which, if I get it, will likely compound my Chloroquine's effect:
I'm trying the MedCram suggestion of Chloroquine and Zinc in case SHTF:
Actual science vid, worth a watch.

If you're obese like I, the sun won't yield you enough D3 because it dilutes over all your fat.

Yeah I guess there would be surface area to volume type considerations. Sunlight has mood benefits as well though. I am towards the high end of the normal range according to BMI (which is pretty bullshit but it's some kind of reference.) At my heaviest I was a bit past the "overweight" point.

The Dutch minister of Medical Affairs & Sports collapsed in parliament due to overexhaustion and resigned from his function. As he put it, dealing with this crisis is top sports and his body cannot handle the long hours, meetings everywhere etc.
Dammit, he tried.
Replace him with someone young and roll on.
