I am of the mind shut stuff down as much as possible and ride it out. It will decimate the economy but if all nations actually worked together you could mitigate that. Do stuff like uniformly tax the wealthy around the world and pause things as much as you can with the assumption it goes back to some kind of new normal after.
"Tax the wealthy" is always going to be a logical fallacy. They're the ones that employ people.

It sounds good to broke people to tax Jeff Bezos, but what ends up happening if that were true is employees in all those companies get pay cuts or laid off.
