After reading a bit more, maybe it's not such a panacea. Seems like it's standard of care, but may not help patients who have advanced symptoms; and, obviously, does not prevent infection. Therefore it may not stop us from imposing the preventative measures (quarantine, travel restrictions, the like) which are causing all the economic catastrophe. Still, seems like it would push a bit of a positive spin on things rather than allowing the economic free-fall we've witnessed.
