Was government correct in closing down many activities during COVID

[OKTexas]

The word is "past".

Nope, it's FOAD.

It's OK to be stupid in your case. Most Texans are not, however.

IMO, countries that had lockdowns got it wrong.

Hear me out.

In the initial stages, I stepped back and looked at the whole picture. One thing that stood out was the number of deaths that would result from lockdowns, but not from COVID itself. So here in the UK, some predicted 8,000+ would die because their cancer wasn't caught at the early stage due to cancelled screening appointments. The other prediction was, unemployment, supply and demand problems, high inflation etc.. after the lockdowns. This would impact detrimentally on diet, and thus on health. So more die from illnesses brought on by poorer diets over the coming years. So in reality, deaths from the effects of COVID lockdowns continue to this day, apparently.

So the planet lost a tiny tiny tiny few folk under lock downs, and no doubt just a tiny tiny few with no lockdowns. Then that gap narrows due to missed cancer screenings and poor diet.

And now, the vast majority are suffering.

So from the start, I was against lockdowns.

Nothing our government did was effective, nothing made a difference, everything they told us was proven wrong.

They violated our trust Cave dude

And distanced themselves from any responsibility

~S~

You folks seem to haver a problem defining a government that insists you lock yourselves in your own home

But hey, all those covid funds shut you up rather effectively

And now we're a bankrupt nation that your grandkids will curse you for

~S~

To say nothing of the tyranny they imposed and the thousands of people injured and killed by the fake vax.

Spoken like a true socialist. Gas prices are higher in other countries due to increased production and transportation costs and the major contributor is taxes.

You are saying the US is more efficient in oil production/processing costs and transportation costs and have less taxes. A very efficient economy. Reason being they are less socialist than the vast majority countries of the world.

If your points are true they are very helpful for the democrats.
Lucky for MAGA, all your points are not true.

Yes, it saved thousands of lives. The End​

If anyone thinks the US and the world was all right or all wrong in dealing with COVID, they have their head up their ass.
Decisions had to be made without information/data. There was none on the new virus. They had to adapt to data from other viruses. They refined what to do as they received more data world wide.
The worldwide success and the US success was substantially better than the last pandemic we faced, the spanish flu.
We need a deep dive on what worked and what did not work, in facing COVID, to use for new viruses of the future. Also what we do with COVID going forward.

I am not a fan of far left commies but they may be better than MAGA.

Sure you are. That's why you never supported anyone but hard Left Democrats

Killed thousands of businesses, and that's more important

I doubt it. The utter vast majority are suffering from the utter vast minority.

I have been a registered Republican until clowns like you hijacked the party
