Good paper, unless there are flawed assumptions that only a peer review would spot. Maybe the vaccine, if there ever is one, should be inhaled. Find an inhaler for pneumonia. A disinfectant for the lungs..
As overworked as the health systems are now with this, think about how a very small percentage of the population is infected. If 30% or 50% were infected we could be looking at the end of humanity. We need to concentrate on stopping the spread, forget about going back to work, movies, sports, etc.
Or invent a more traceable form of quarantine, and realize we're going to spend appreciable parts of our lives in quarantine. A factory or college could quarantine together, and once the infections are dealt with continue to function normally. As long as no infections from outside get in. Think of a quarantine period as an airlock, it's very cumbersome to get through but once you're inside, assuming everyone else has been quarantined, you're fairly safe.
My 2 weeks ends Monday, no symptoms.
