Besides, counting an integral number of deaths gives you an integral number. You'll only know the cumulative effect of whatever state the country is in, which is the result of many factors, among which the precise state of the lockdown.
- natmaka 6y ago> There are many intermediate stages of lockdown Indeed, and this doesn't forbid comparisons if we can assess each effective stage. More datapoints, yay! Those many factors cumulative effects are indeed difficult to assess, and this is true for each of such analysis. If we try to find correlations, here between lockdown effective intensity and the amount of victims, and if a trend becomes perceptible for most nations...
