| I don't know where you're from that you heard that. But from where I'm from, we were told that: - it was just only the beginning of a massive sh*tstorm, not just "2 weeks of lockdown and we'll be ok" - the lockdown in April was to mitigate as much as possible the first wave - a second wave would almost definitely arrive in the winter (hello! it's here! we're in lockdown again, pretty much as planned) - nothing will be back to normal before we get the vaccine, and even then, it would take months if not years for it to be a thing of the past, and that until then we'd have to do our best to follow the guidelines. You can't compare scientific proof that something works vs. a government decision taken to "mitigate things". The spring lockdown helped free beds in hospital and ultimately it saved thousands if not millions of lives worldwide. Period. This is UNDENIABLE. Also, maybe if some people weren't so doubtful that these decisions were for their own good and stopped throwing tantrums about their "fundamental right to breathe air", we wouldn't have had a second wave at all. Maybe. |
