The rate is far to high for older people with preconditions only. They must stay home - isolated.
How the hell do you expect them to do that?!? Most older people have to work, including most with preconditions. They have to go to the store to buy food. Wealthy or retired old people can stay isolated at home, but in the U.S. most old people live paycheck to paycheck. If they do not soon get back to work, they will be evicted from their houses, so they will not have a home to stay in. We must greatly reduce the infection rate so there is room in the hospitals and so that people can back to work. See:
