At least u acknowledge it. Its simply unreasonable not to
This is what I mean by coronaphobia. People are so afraid and focused on corona that everyone else is being ignored
Pretending that they'll be no consequences is irresponsible and reckless from leaders.
It becomes more about virtue signalling to help win the next election rather then genuine concern for everyone's lives
Rev. Rye Wrote:The thing is, frankly, I'd rather defer to the wisdom of those who are studying the virus and its effects before demanding the end of lockdowns.
ScoMo has been calling to reopen for ages now on advice from medical professionals. But it's up to our state leaders and some of them coronaphobe tyrants.
No experts are telling them to keep it closed their just being Joseph Stalin about it

It is inevitable that there will be a spike in new cases here in Australia cos they are ramping up testing. Many people are asymptomatic.
So it won't surprise me if they lockdown again cos of new cases while the hospitals remain empty again and the death rate is minuscule.
We know the people who are most at risk and I tend to agree with the many medical experts that say that we should protect the people at risk while we go about our lives.
