The trick is to not allow too much new infections.
Italy ( and China,) shows that overflowing the health system is deadly.
Unfortunately measures will probably applied in a binary fashion.
Either it is full quarantine or none.
To some varying degree per country/region the measures are late.
I do wonder how (trying to) remove medical resources from other
nations by the US will be judged in the future.
further increasing sactions vs Iran to hamper their coping
with the pandemic is prety high on the scale of assholeism
thinkable.
