- All models (and actual cases in numerous countries) have shown, for years, that we do not have the capability to cope with an outbreak of this magnitude. Public health will be overwhelmed. WE NEED TIME to find a cure, a vaccine, or to have enough beds for adequate treatment. And to treat other diseases. An overwhelmed public health system will result in numerous collateral damage, not only from the virus. THE ONLY SOLUTION FOR NOW IS TO ISOLATE YOURSELF, PRACTICE SOCIAL DISTANCE, AND FOLLOW THE GOVERNMENT INSTRUCTIONS.
