Except that the early lockdown numbers don't lend any validity to your theory that lockdowns don't work.. Sure people are social animals. But most of them also don't have the common sense of your average housefly. And the bottom line here is if people would have just done the right thing from the get go (that would be in the end of March/beginning of April timeframe), a lot of what we are going through right now...wouldn't be happening. We could be back at some sort of normal.
Actually, all of the countries in Eurotrash zone still have Coronavirus, even though they hate President Trump.
So, no, Trump isn't "responsible" at all
Don't care. We're not discussing Trump here. Sweden and tangentially the whole "lockdown" strategy.
And we're not Sweden. Their population (10.5 million) vs us (330 million), their population density (spread out except for a few cities),
and their population's willingness to do the right thing. So far, it's yielded mixed results. Stricter lockdowns may be on the way
for them. Unfortunately, everything I'm trying to link to...has a paywall.
If Sleepy Joe wins the election in a couple of weeks, America is going to be locked down tight for a minimum of 3 months beginning in January, he's made that crystal clear. Regardless of whether its a good idea.
Certainly tremendous news if you are in the Mask business or own a speakeasy.
So again, I repeat. If people in this country could just see the bigger picture and understand that any measure of lockdown and the resulting economic damage..come from our inability to just basically put aside our
need for individual liberty and freedom long enough to do what's right to tamp the virus down, not only for our fellow citizens who might be more vulnerable than us, but to be able to limit the economic damage so
we can carry on with something approaching normal. Alas, that's not going to happen...no matter who is President.
