This is the same thing China is doing, except China is also lying about it and saying they have "contained" it with extreme quarantine, in part to trick other nations into doing the same thing to tank their economies while China is going back to work and letting the virus spread.
Good for UK to step up amidst hysteria. Hopefully other democratic nations will follow suit.
1. Tell the labs to report COVID19 cases as "seasonal flu"
2. Stop reporting cases to unblock quarantine and travel restrictions
3. Economy back to work while rest of the world is trying to quarantine
4. Virus runs a course through the whole country and kills 30 million "expensive" old people with comorbidities, yielding a huge win against a long-term existential threat associated with ageing population.
CDC should require every lab and hospital screening for COVID19 to send lung CT and lab data to the government, and release it as a public dataset for AI developers to build screening models.

Bernie owns 3 houses, he will never support land value tax. Almost all progressive Berniecrats in Bay Area are NIMBYs [1].
Bernie is right about healthcare, but he is wrong about virtually everything else, in my opinion.
