The first paragraph of the NBC article:
> BUENOS AIRES - Argentina has the world’s highest rate of positive COVID-19 tests, according to Oxford-linked tracker Our World In Data, with nearly six out of 10 yielding an infection, a reflection of low testing levels and loose enforcement of lockdown rules.
If you were implying that strict lockdowns have paradoxically failed, then you've picked the wrong evidence.
- thu2111 6y agoThe impracticality of actually "locking down" is one of the key arguments against the concept, so it's not wrong evidence at all. The idea society can be shut down for indefinite, unknown periods is not correct as we don't live in a world where all manual labour is performed by robots.
