Technically it will never be possible to end lockdown, as the very least there will always be another virus to come along.


Eg Spanish Flu outbreak in Connecticut, 3 cities didn't close schools and had fewer deaths, than in at least 2 cities that did close schools. But that shouldn't be used as a definitive answer because there are so many other factors involved.
What do you mean it hasn’t worked? Tiny number of deaths, cases identified and isolated quickly. People going around their day to day lives in relative normality. They’ve held national elections in this time.

How do you define success? 30,000 deaths? A massacre in care homes? Genuinely I’d really like to know.
