We don’t have the facilities to properly quarantine everyone who has tested positive. And what are you going to do about all of those asymptomatic contagious people who haven’t been identified.

That's why I suggested a blanket lockdown. Shut everything down and have police patrol the streets.
The only facilities you need are your own home. Argentina along with other nations are doing that exact thing right now.
@Richard White you REALLY need to calm down - for your own protection. If you are not comfortable working then stay at home, if you get freaked out by the covid-19 news then try to do something else. (A good long (solitary) walk might be useful.) We will get through this, but not if we are spending far too much time worrying and assuming the worst.That's why I suggested a blanket lockdown.

I’m walking the dog three times a day. I think I’ve met nearly 40 dogs (at a safe distance) and now know every alleyway and corner of Cabbagetown.Go for a walk. You have to look after your physical and mental health.
This is an alternative ;->I’m walking the dog three times a day. I think I’ve met nearly 40 dogs (at a safe distance) and now know every alleyway and corner of Cabbagetown.
We knew about this for so long and did NOTHING. The fact that we’re playing catch up pisses me off. Everything has been so reactive and not proactive.
Hope good times are right around the corner.
Not to sound like like I'm defending governmental or societal reaction, I'm not sure we knew then what we know now. In early days, it was China-centric outbreak, then exploded in parts of the Middle East and Europe. Who knew. Its specific epidemiology was not known. If we had locked down our economy and society to the extent we have now when it was still only known in one city in one Chinese province, we would have gone nuts and probably widely ignored it.
If you mean a general pandemic readiness, such as stockpiling medical supplies and equipment, perhaps you are right. There is an international agreement (can't find a like right now) addressing readiness, response and cooperation that has been widely ignored. Canada in particular has a tendency to not invest in readiness on many fronts.
