From the New York, The Wall Street Journal warns of “a tsunami of economic destruction that will cause tens of millions to lose their jobs as commerce and production simply cease…there is no amount of money that can make up for losses of the magnitude we are facing if this extends for several more weeks.” The Journal’s influential editorial page says quarantine policies must be finetuned to “include strict measures to isolate and protect the most vulnerable—our elderly and those with underlying medical problems.” The editorial concludes: “No society can safeguard public health for long at the cost of its overall economic health.”
