The US, India, Brazil, UK, Russia should all be quarantined until the virus is under control in our respective countries.

That would be sensible policy and the medical community in the US (to which I belong) should be on record as supporting such a move. It would be the most respectable and respectful thing our country will have done in several months, if not years.

We should have had a better handle on this after all this time, but the national response has been inexcusable. It all depend on which state - or in some cases, city - where you live. I'm in New York and far from any large city, so the number of cases has been much fewer than downstate and the governor has been good at setting policy and keeping us informed. But we're now headed into the seasonal tourist season and with places "opening up," it's very worrisome that things could get worse.
