Anyway, on a more serious note, have any of you the experience of;
a) getting severely ill and having had a bad experience yourself
b) knowing someone getting severely ill or
c) even losing someone close to you through complications of this evil disease
Even if you have, does that justify supporting infringements on basic human rights of the majority who HAVEN'T?
I've noticed a lot of people who strongly support lockdown are those who've had really bad experiences. It's quite understandable.
Although I'm against lockdowns as a non pharmaceutical intervention, I do acknowledge what it must be like to catch the disease badly, know someone who has or know someone who's passed as a result of complications of the covid disease. What I want to knw is what are your experiences of the disease? Have you had any of these experiences?
We know the risk groups are those who are;
- Those over 70
- Those in at risk groups https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavir ... ronavirus/
If covid logic was applied to road safety
I've been knocked over, I want all driving banned (when a better approach could be better-designed intersections). I've been knocked-off my bike, car I dangerous, I want them all banned (a better approach would be better treatments of intersections and driver training, like the Dutch reach).
You see what I'm saying?
The only reason I can think of for people to be so pro-lockdown is a) to have had one of the experiences listed or b) to be virtue-signalling.
I would appreciate if people who've had the experiences listed speak-up rather than resort to trolling of posts critical of lockdowns and shut-downs of everything..
