I was never anti lockdown but voices that argue that measures are counterproductive or worse in the long should be given the same respect as pro lockdown, particularly from epidemiologists.<br /> Death from this was always unavoidable. We have to leave individual stories and emotions out of it. Say estimates are 15 million deaths. That should be weighed Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14120277877011965034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-26902142593110556322020-11-21T09:13:51.405+00:002020-11-21T09:13:51.405+00:00David,

Why wouldn't it? Unless we have wrongly identified the spreading agents. Lockdown fatigue means it becomes progressively harder to implement lockdown. I think we are witnessing that in Ireland just now.
