But dont let that stop people from wanting to end the lockdown. Remember its the rate of death thats the issue and the fact its not slowing down. The number is still going up !

Edit: government predicts deaths per day to double by June

Duh it's going up. Once someone is dead they can't come back to life.

It seems quite possible to me that by the end of 2020 the USA could have more deaths from COVID-19 than they did from World War 2

Conservatives have decided that their haircuts, eating out and big businsess' profits are more important than people's lives and not overwhelming the healthcare system.

I remember when it was about getting back to work and helping the economy.

Instead it's people wanting haircuts, going to the beach, restaurants and standing in crowds to buy shoes.

How many people does the flu kill regularly over a three month period without a national lockdown?

Maybe if it was shut down completely and permanently. Is anyone advocating ending the concept of an economy for the rest of time?

I wish people like you would say that to people who have lost family/friends/love one from this virus to see what happens.

A prolonged stretch of extreme economic uncertainty where businesses struggle to function because of a virus shutting them down periodically without the ability to plan for when it will happen is the cure!

It's one of those things where people don't give a shit about until it actually happens to them or someone that they know.

Seeing how there are more people outside not even wearing face covering let alone social distancing and acting like the coronavirus never existed, yeah I can see it happening.
