And potentially so many deaths that the services won't be able to keep pace. Millions will die in pain at home or even in the streets (homeless) as there will be no other place and no medical staff available for them. Great plan Jonty. The only option right now is to impose restrictions, keep the numbers down and wait patiently for a vaccine or better ways to treat the people with the virus. But then again, you will still need ample resources to do that.
