@JamesGDyke @past_is_future These are all great considerations, and we do discuss some of these as sensitivity

But given the incredible difference between the costs and benefits, it will be almost impossible to make the lockdown a good use of resources
@JamesGDyke @past_is_future I am surprised you would say "Your job is to show innaction & immediate deaths is "cheaper" than action"

That just wrong. We're trying to find what works best

I would encourage you to try to show other parameter choices that would show a lockdown is a great idea for Malawi
@JamesGDyke @past_is_future That would help the conversation forward, and also help Malawi (and Ghana and other countries)

And it would also be helpful to hear your reply to why it wouldn't be better first to help the people with HIV, where we can avoid more deaths at 4,000th the cost
