You have only to look at France and Spain both had longer and harder lockdowns than us and what’s happening now far worst than us also Holland now. Life has to go on remember if your old enough 85 thousand died of Hong Kong flu in 68/69 don’t remember a lockdown then.
I'm not quite old enough.
Still, if less than 10% of the country has had COVID, and it is proven to be more contagious than most flu-type illnesses, and 40,000 are dead already, wouldn't we expect a Hell of a lot more than 85,000 deaths before this is through?
Not saying lockdown is the answer, just don't think we should trivialise the threat.
