> The approach you are taking can be used to justify complete control and arbitrary lockdowns whenever N cases or N deaths for any virus happen. Or for anything that can be construed as a public health crisis, including things not related to viruses. Don't you see that? Yeah, I do see that! In fact it's almost like Australia wrote an act about this stuff like 80 years ago that define the criteria and rights and responsibilities of the commonwealth during national emergencies. And it's almost like the pandemic meets those criteria and then we used the powers as written in the act. Almost like this isn't the emergence of a totalitarian state but was the state we lived in all along, or something. > My heart breaks for any death anywhere.

Cognitive dissonance getting to you, yet?
