mate, this time last week the advice was to sing happy f**king birthday

you've seen the Imperial report that actually got the strategy changed (just weeks after The Lancet had said the same thing)?

lockdown fast, get it under control, test, test, test and test some more

lift the lockdown a little bit at a time, keep testing, when numbers begin to rise, lockdown again

rinse and repeat until we get a vaccine
