This is wrong, empirically. It has definitely worked – exceptionally well – in South Korea and many other countries.https://twitter.com/MartinKulldorff/status/1307377809619288065 …

That's not true at all of SK which has only had mild regional 'lockdowns'. They were persuaded to close nightclubs at some point I grant you. Efficient TTI has been one important measure, alongside masks etc.
As part of their lockdown, S Korea had closed schools, baseball games without spectators, etc. Still self-isolated with visitors in 14-day quarantine. They are not done with the pandemic though. Hopefully they can postpone it until other countries develop a vaccine for them.pic.twitter.com/8mhHA7ABiv

Compared to the UK they have had two orders of magnitude fewer deaths, and one order of magnitude less damage to their economy.
