I didn't say the harm from the virus is not real. I said the harm from lockdown is more than the harm from virus.

>Had we gotten it over and done with your freedom would have been materially improved over the subsequent months would it not? No, because we don't even need the lockdown in the first place. I'm not saying nothing should be don

Not worth the risk/harm due to lockdown, at least for this virus. I'm still open to the idea that a lockdown would work but not for this virus. >For your own greater good. For a net gain in freedom You mean for your greater g

>You stay inside for 3 weeks and it will literally end Thats why it wouldn't work. You want everyone to stay inside for 3 weeks.

The obvious takeaway is lockdown doesn't work

Yes its bias becuase it actually trying to measure the harm on lockdown and comparing the harm. It bias towards trying to achieve the better outcome. Not all experts even try to measure the lockdown harm. A good portion of the covid death n

The goal is to achieve best outcome that have the less harm. Lockdown cause harm that is more than the covid itself. It is because the human life is important that lockdown shouldn't be taken. The lockdown cause harm is based on scienc

If you think that is biased then yes it is biased towards the goal of achieving the best less harm outcome. >the majority of the population understands the huge risks posed by this virus, and will lockdown anyway. The majority of people

>You've found a fringe group sponsored by an American right-wing think tank So you just dismiss many of epidemiological or public health experts and accused them selling out. >When in fact, again, all public health experts agree

>And even if HALF the reported numbers were wrong (the reality is probably closer to 0.01% or something), it would still be a viral disease much worse than any other active in the wealthy world today. It is bad but in the grand scheme of

>Sweden is doing worse economically than any other Nordic country, which all had bigger lockdowns Yes worse than before pandemic thats because other doing countries lockdown but life pretty much still normal there. Business open as usual

by matz1 6y ago
Look at Sweeden, they didn't lockdown, life pretty much normal over there. Sure the number of case is "high" but vast of the majority of covid case are asymptomatic or only have mild symptoms. Taiwan also don't have lock

the issue is lockdown cause damage that is greater than the virus >with 100 million people in a tiny country and a grand total of 37 deaths so far this year) Sure but what is the damage due to lockdown ? You too can reduce death from veh

by matz1 6y ago
that number is 1.1 million number is including death with covid not just due to covid. so using your number its around 0.01% of the world population. I'm not saying its not worth to do something about it but if your answer of 'to

Daily case are meaningless when vast majority are asymptotic or only have mild symptom. How many that are actually require hospitalization ? How many death (death as in due to covid not with covid) ? Then there is false positive from the te

Lockdown and the fear mongering can cause those anxiety/depression/mental issue. Its a cure that worse than the disease.

by matz1 6y ago
I know its a ratio. You can consider it too high/extreme, I cannot force you to think otherwise. I'm not against doing something about it. What I'm against is if the answer of 'doing something about it' is lockdown.

Where is the misunderstanding ? >It has not affected me so it probably doesnt affect anyone I didn't say it won't affect me or it won't affect anyone.

by matz1 6y ago
Sure but how about the risk/damage due to lockdown?

I see my parents regardless. They are happy to see me. There are always a risk of some kind regardless of covid. My parents are old too, they have high chance of death and likely also have some kind of existing condition. Covid or not they

I wake up long time ago when I realized the virus is not as dangerous as the media reported it. You too should wake up right now and live your life. Stop being afraid.

Its the internet, i think its fair for people to criticize, likewise the author has no obligation to listen as well.

by matz1 6y ago
The successive generation can also be the silent supporter or they can be the braver/smarter supporter who aren't afraid to voice their view.

A person may die but ideas lives on.

by matz1 6y ago
Yes including that issue. One person extreme view is just another person normal view, its subjective.
