Was thinking about that today. Though it'd have to last about a month.

It could have been so different had we done it right.

Not at all different. Covid is a pandemic, not simply an epidemic. As long as international travel still happens to any extent and the borders are not 100% closed, it will always come back to the US as long as the rest of the world is still dealing with it.

He's saying a two-week shutdown wouldn't do very much because the moment the shutdown ended the US would be back to having millions of international travelers arriving every single day.

India had people test positive and still went about their regular life with zero quarantine or even masks or staying away from others

Covid would still be around because of essential workers and lack of face masks. The shutdown was to not overwhelm hospitals.

The long term impact would have been largely the same. There was no conceivable way to keep it from spreading once it arrived here.
