Yes we will voluntarily do better than nothing. It’s still infuriating that tens of thousands have died due to mixed messages about appropriate behavior. We’ve beaten the “do nothing” scenario but that is a very low bar.

France and Spain seem to be experiencing big spikes precisely because they largely returned to normal. Now, reopening schools and childcare probably isn't the big problem there because they don't seem to be major contributors to spreading the disease - but this also means countries could just not have shut them in the first place.

I'm not really sure your point, I wasn't saying they are spiking for the same or different reasons. Just that they're having problems too, so they're not exactly "able to resume normal life."
