I say again, the virus will determine that. We are slowing it down, not stopping infections.

Your opinions are so wrong as to be absolutely dangerous Old Boy.

There's a reason why Germany and South Korea have relatively few deaths and a reason the UK, Spain and Italy have a high number.
Do you seriously believe that, jfman, or are you offering everyone false hope?

Here we go again, attack capitalism!

What you advocate in relation to the lockdown measures would have been very popular with King Canute. He was a great advocate of the power of hope and delusion over nature.
