[QUOTE="hedrick, post: 74834787, member: 239032"] I think we can evaluate the claim that there was a better plan than the old NSC one by what we observe. The NSC plan would have had us start looking at long-term issues such as availability of equipment as early as possible. We delayed it too long. But what S Korea and others did differently is that their contact tracing kept them out of the situation we're in. I'm not clear why we didn't succeed. As I recall, we started contact tracing from the beginning. The biggest difference I'm aware of is that we weren't ready with large-scale testing soon enough for it to support early contact tracing. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable can say whether there were other reasons it didn't work. We're ramping up now, but it's now too late. [/QUOTE]
