I am neither in favour of or against the lockdown. I consider myself ill-equipped to make this decision. I do not have the data, not the know-how. I hope that I can trust the people who have passed the job interviews in our institutions and have been elected to do their job properly or at least better then what I can do without know how or data.
So for every person who puts forth their strategy I get curious, why? So here's a few questions to you.
Can you explain your position?
Can you tell me your social context, what state and city are you in? What is the opinion of your friends and family?
Did you weigh the numbers for predicted economic impact and predicted deaths and health issues and contrast them? Did you consider factors such as that even pre-lockdown the economy was slowing and restaurants closing because a lot of consumers voluntarily avoided putting themselves at risk?
Without you putting any answers to these, or specifying your qualifications, the amount of time you spent thinking about the problem, the edge cases, etc. I can't trust your judgement anymore then I'd trust a coin flip.
