This social distancing protocol is very brute force. If you had time to design say a 5-level distancing protocol like defcon using clever tech, how would you do it?

Like food services really shouldn’t need to shut down this comprehensively if you screen workers and diners with adequate screening/continuous surveillance. R0 shouldn’t really be an extensive aggregate measure of a social graph. You should be able to measure it local and live.

Surveillance tech to estimate E(R0(node_id, t)). Heat map for the entire social graph with R0 as an intensive property. Manage the risk like you manage traffic with signals, not like border controls at chokepoints to entire region.

Containment can follow hyperlocal smart bounding rather than coarse fortress-and-moat 🤔 Of course microbial barrier surveillance state yada yada but we already do it with cameras.
