Dr Fauci has been commenting fairly frequently that if it looks like the country is overreacting they're probably doing it right. That being said, do you think enough countries are taking the more draconian approach currently, or should countries be reacting much more strongly at an earlier stage of spread?

They know their stuff

Definitely interested in the two strains aspect. Great question.

Hi all, very much appreciate the hard work and effort being on display.

My question would be whether or not you think the global response to COVID-19 has been adequate in proportion to the scale of the outbreaks taking place? We see in countries like the UK and US the advice is primarily at a level of maintaining personal hygiene, while nearby countries (Italy and France for example) face wide-spread disruptions to daily life. Should countries with lower infection rates be more proactive in order to prevent spread?
