First, as I recall you made the point that the mass testing in South Korea was
effective in combatting the coronavirus.
You advocate mass testing as opposed to social distancing.
The point has been made elsewhere that South Korea has a single payer system,
which is much more effective in dealing with this crisis than the US system.
The US system is not going to change in the short term.
Also, one of the obstacles to mass testing in the US has been the fact that
they have very few test kits.
This is not going to change within days, or even within 2 weeks.
Secondly, are you suggesting that the virus will pass through the population at
the same rate whether or not we stay in our homes or go out and mix with other
people?
