In the US you just need to look at the COVID-19 bills that are tied up in Congress for an idea of the money needed i.e. ~ 2-5 trillion.

And you can fund it exactly the same way you did for the GFC (print money) or WW2 (war bonds).

But compare it to the cost of the US bouncing in/out of lockdowns for the next 9-12 months.

Sounds like a terrible idea.
