That’s why you lockdown! Get it?? Other countries did this, it’s not that hard. Total lockdowns for a month or so and then total normalcy until next the next spike. Far less loss of life and disruption in society than the approach we have taken here. Also what does that even mean?? Your family members are going to get it anyways if someone in the house has it regardless of lockdowns or not. They’re not going to be able to stay out forever.

Reading comprehension? To be clear I’m not advocating lockdowns now, the time for it was long ago. Just trying to explain to you how lockdowns work.

And the Stanford study says they don’t work that way. But, Science!

But you said we needed to lockdown for 2 weeks and now it’s at least a month. Which is it? How do you put pants on without drooling all over yourself? Life would be so much easier if I could go through it with as much stupid as you do!

From your own article. It’s all a matter of how your country handles it. In order for lockdowns to work, people have to be on the same page. Government has to be able to support the people as well.

All it has really shown is that it’s “possible” to not have shutdowns and still do fine or better than other countries that did. One example is South Korea. Do you honestly think that their obedient culture that takes care of each other and puts emphasis on collective good over the individual can match our culture? That’s why we had the lockdowns here as well as indefinite restrictions because people were still arguing over how to wear a mask 6 months in. Sure you don’t need lockdowns but if you’re arguing whether it would have worked here in the US then that’s another matter.

I don’t know why this Chinese troll still posts here after getting absolutely shredded by BoilerUp in one of the other endless threads about this garbage. Knob didn’t even post for like a week after that clowning.

The shtick is old, take your worthless drivel elsewhere.
