The premise that they need to be in lockdown to avoid infections is an affirming the consequence. It's cold season. People are being colds. People with compromised immune systems can have an immunological response that leads to phneumonia. Nothing is new here. Your premise about the Chinese New year is incorrect as well btw. Again, another affirming the consequence fallacy. Also, your defensive speaks volumes. You don't think you're being hysterical, but you are. Be angry at the uselected officials who you've allowed to control you. Be mad at yourself for allowing it.
