The justifications given for these unlawful lockdowns is always given in absolute numbers. Twice the deaths, 1000 more deaths, total deaths, with no analysis given beyond a made to be shocking number. Sweden's death total is .0002 of its population, Norway and Denmark .00004 and .00007 of their population's respectively (all rounded). We are not given population demographics, other disease rates, mortality circumstances, overall mortality rates in the demostrated countries. I am not an epidemiologist so I can't make a scientific judgement as to whether these are medically statistically significant numbers. I can however notice a lack of comparison to how many people die because of reduced standard medical care and other traumas caused by lockdown. I can notice we have politicians who have painted themselves into a corner and now have to double down on their questionable lockdown narrative. I fear President Trump has been painted into a corner and has to echo the opinions of his overreaching advisors. Our state and federal beuracrats, both elected and non elected, started a process with no plan on how to get out of it and mitigate it's damage. Some did this knowingly, some in a panic. It concerns me that President Trump is echoing the narrative. I hope he has a plan. He has on all else prior. I just want real scientific dialogue to arrive at a conclusion, not alternative voices silenced by unelected ideologues to arrive at a predetermined conclusion.
