You are over-reacting - nobody has called you stupid, nor a scared sheep. Can you produce any evidence that another lockdown will work in the long term, or even that the previous one will?
Don't forget - right at the start of all this, we were told that, in common with most viral pulmonary conditions we could expect to see the incidence of cases fall when the weather turned warmer and sunnier, but that we could expect to see it increase in cold, damp conditions - and that is exactly what we saw and what we are seeing. It will be interesting to see what happens in Australia and New Zealand as they move into their summer - don't forget, their recent problems have occurred, are occurring, in their winters (a point that seems to have escaped the attention of some).
Perhaps I shouldn't have said the MORI poll showed how frightened folk have become - perhaps it would have been more accurate to say brainwashed.
Nobody in their right mind will deny that covid-19 is a nasty infection and is lethal to the most vulnerable, but even SAGE accept that for the young it is almost invariably a minor illness - and 'the young' far outnumber the most vulnerable
And for this we are ruining the economy, wrecking lives, seeing businesses go under, seeing domestic abuse increase, seeing suicides increase. The balance is wrong.
