A thought experiment for you, Justin...
If containment does not work, do we just submit to the random spread of the virus or do we "take back control"? [To borrow a phrase.]
I am in one of the high risk categories, so I'd like to decide when to expose myself to infection - and sooner rather than later. I'd be quite happy to drive myself to a quarantine centre, book myself in, be exposed to someone infected, let the disease run it's course in a safe place and then, if still alive, drive myself home.
My thought is a lot of folks might well share this view - elective infection of covid-19 under controlled conditions. Then we are out and back to normal, or dead. [Without having to wait for that to happen.]
