There are very many people with extremely serious illnesses and others in need of checkups because they are prone to potentially fatal medical illness who are being ignored, and deaths are increasing as a result. You really cannot believe that prevention of deaths of COVID patients is more important than preventing deaths of other patients. That is just ludicrous, as is the whole idea of continuing lockdowns.
Elderly residents in my area have become worried, depressed and desperate because they cannot get the medical attention they need, and your brilliant solution is more of the same. Which, unfortunately, will not yield a different result.
The increasing number of local lockdowns in the country tells you all you need to know about the futility of this policy. It’s time for a different approach. jfman ‘s doomsday solution has clearly failed.
