How many lives would have been saved if we taught social distancing properly before the Covid19 arrived in Canada and the USA , and the world?

For next time? For me the next time that I hear that the next outbreak is low I’m going to buy necessities, like a madman, or before the next crisis. Or even when every thing is fine.

In Canada the government said that their is a low chance of infection, early on when social distancing would have helped greatly. What a load of B.S.! The false sense of security cost lives.

Should we make social distancing education and hygiene methods mandatory for everyone. Starting now?
