- odshoifsdhfs 7y agoThe problem is you can't be 100% if it was because of the lockdown or how the virus plays out. We in HN and other science based forums always want double-blinded trials of just about anything, but for this lockdown, we just assume it is 100% right and nothing else. I believe a lockdown/travel restrictions would have been effective on case number 1. When you do it on case 1000 it is just ... well... useless I guess?
