the U.S. all countries that implemented mandatory lockdown orders and business closures

However, the researchers also acknowledged that the study had limitations, and noted that "cross-country comparisons are difficult," since nations may have different rules, cultures, and relationships between their government and citizenry.

For additional context, other studies have oppositely determined that lockdown orders have effectively saved millions of lives.

I wonder if TC will admit to himself that he's someone who just looks for "facts" that support what he already believes and then stops looking into stuff.

I think Bidens push to get all the vaccinations out ASAP is a move to hopefully avoid a second lockdown. The lockdown was actually proven to work, but I would like to avoid it.

I take it TC just read the headline?

I saw one that said the EU never really shut schools down

Those psychos

The UK lockdowns have clear data that show they work here.
First.lock.down saw cases drop right down. They release lockdown and cases rocket immediately. They then lock down November and cases drop again. Let up lockdown and it rockets.

So for the UK is say they work, but they bring their own problems, economy and jobs etc.

We literally have more dead and more sick because we're the only country with a significant portion of the population not following the suggested rules over "freedom violations" or some shit.

This literally would be over in a month or two if people just fucking listened.

And now in this lockdown far too many people are just ignoring it and going out. Want to slap the lot of them.

But they do work, governments just need to stick with them and not open up at the first sign things are getting better.

I agree. The snow hasn't helped, loads out playing in it.. spreading the virus.. imagine seeing your relative die in an ICU ward because you went to a snowball fight? Horrible thought to me.

Any reason not to just block TC right away?

Didn't have my keyboard readily available earlier but was also wondering the same thing.

Hes probably gonna get himself banned without a week anyway

Yeah, I do notice that sort of trend with my block list

Because no one took the lockdowns seriously. I never saw even saw traffic dip. And when I drove by Home Depot and Lowes their parking lots were packed. The virus spreaders are idiots who wont be deterred.
