Having experienced the decisions of our fearlful german woman leader, it's clear that she didn't act by reason, only by fear. Why did no politican look at the numbers by themselves, and rather trust "interesting" advisers? Esp. when knowingly throwing the world into a global crisis, which could be worse than in the 20ies. Which brought us WW2. The numbers clearly tell that the death threat is no death threat, that flattening the curve will cause at least two times more dead than letting it running its spike for 4 weeks. Hundreds of thousands of dead? Give me a break. A flu season has 550.000, how much have we got now for COVID-19? The normal flu still caused many more dead than COVID-19. Every medium flu season is more deadly than this one. By far. Keeping people locked in at home and keeping the schools closed will only help to keep the virus alive which should be already dead by now, if people would go out into the sun. There is no chance for a vaccine, there is no chance to keep the spread under control with lockdowns with an R0 of over 5. There is no danger with an IFR of 0.3 - 0.6% (0.4% looking the most reliable number for now). Italy always has an IFR of 1% for every such flu outbreak. But they went bonkers when they saw the military vans on TV. Well done. The women leaders I see were all hysterical.
While the men around her (the neighboring countries) did respond in a more rational and less hysterical fashion. 4 weeks lockdown ok, why not. Does not do much harm. But the whole summer? Closing all summer events? Pure insanity. That way they will never get it under control and reach herd immunity before fall. They already found out about their massive mistake, now they are only doing damage control by controlling the message, censorship, fearing a political turmoil in the next elections. |
