Murky Data Calls into Question Quarantine Strategy
By: Amar Bhide
Abstract
Like sepsis, a life-threatening, uncontrolled immune response to infections, draconian efforts to contain the coronavirus outbreak may cause more harm than the infection itself. Yet the measures now paralysing the western world before many have actually died are based on heroic, unverifiable assumptions about infection and death rates.
