Interesting Article/MIT Study

Really don’t understand the point you were trying to make. The reason why it spread so fast early on is because we had so many unforeseen super spreader events early on. Like the guy in New York that came back from China, went to a party and infected a whole bunch of people. The town of New Rochelle was a hotspot early on. Throwing a net over that city would have prevented the spread early on.

There is a reason many island nations that lock down their borders early on have had a much lower impact and slower spreading.
yes. so nothing to do with treatments.
 
If we had better understood the disease and got true info from China in late 2019, I think we could have closed borders and quarantined people and really limited the spread into this country.

But unfortunately we were not able to do this and by the time we got to March the spread was out of control in the US. The first restrictions slowed the spread enough to keep hospitals from getting overwhelmed which was great, but by time we got to last summer that no matter what we did there was still going to be spread.
