The original idea of
“Shelter in place”
Was to reduce the peak number of infected people, or
“Flatten the curve”
So that the hospitals would not run out of ventilators for the sickest of the sick, which assumes that ventilators would “save” large numbers of people.

Now we know that 90% put on ventilators still die, just after 10 to 20 days of “near torture”.

Now we also suspect that there may be better survival just with oxygen or a C-Pap style mask.

So should we continue to “shelter in place” and “social distancing ?

To me the only reason is
“waiting for the discovery of a combination of drugs that REALLY helps the most critically ill not die.

This also includes getting those newly discovered drugs to each hospital.

If we are unlucky and do not discover those drug combinations soon,
we ought to let the young go back to work
and tell just the old to shelter in place voluntarily.

I am not against letting the old “just take their chances” on dying.
