Perhaps the disease is already widespread? An Oxford University study estimated already half of the U.K. has been infected. If (big if) that is the case the disease has already spread. We are basing behavior on unproven theory.
Perhaps there is nothing we can do but herd immunity?
Viruses require some kind of vector. They don’t just magically infect people without exposure. There is no evidence that it’s transmissible airborne outside of short distances via droplets.
