Epidemiologists and virologists are not equipped for such massive problems. They
may be able to say the odd wise word in their field -and even that will
be 90% rear-view mirror stuff, because they must compare what they see
to what happened in the past-, but the disease doesn’t only affect their
field. It affects many fields they have no knowledge of. Their ideas are then taken on board by economists, not
exactly the most scientific of sciences, and off go the government
policies. But that was 6-7 months ago, and we learned so much
since, right? By now we have involved for instance mental health experts
on a large scale, right? Yeah, sure.The point is, you can’t force lockdowns, masks etc. onto
people, without looking at what the consequences of that will be.
Because all things do not remain equal for 6-7 months. ..........
Lockdowns are based on pretending we can make time stand still. That, like in one of those slick videos, everything else stops moving while you can walk around it. All Else Being Equal. It never is, not for 6-7 months. And that the first lockdown didn’t work, at least not for long, should perhaps be a lesson. Maybe you should look for answers elsewhere. Because the damage just goes on, economically, psychologically, physically."
