So I live in Saskatchewan which to date has been doing pretty well (4 deaths per million as against 39 for Canada as a whole and 118 for USA). Province is thinking of re-opening daycares by May 1st. This makes me uneasy. Should it?

Testing and tracing capacity seems to be key.

“Some” testing & tracing capacity isn’t sufficient. Public Health authorities have to be fully ready to be aggressive with testing and tracing if they want to minimize the risks.

Nothing less than proven effective treatments is the baseline... Anything else is ‘accepting’ the deaths of many with handwaving and showmanship.

In the NYT, they said the threshold is 152 tests per 100,000 people per day to re-open an economy. You’d need 1800 for your province. Sask leaders have a target of 1500 by end of April. Thus, even their target is too low. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/04/17/us/coronavirus-testing-states.html …
