If anything this proves just how ineffective lockdowns are. All it takes is even 1 person to spread it around again and then that’s months of lockdown “progress” down the shitter.
“B-but the virus is going away in Europe!”. Watch what happens when they open their borders again. Australia thought they had it beat but now they’re freaking out seeing it pop up in a few places. New Zealand likes to claim that they “eradicated” it, but are they going to leave themselves closed to visitors forever?
Herd immunity is the best and possibly only way out of this.
Exactly why we need to just go for herd immunity. Damn thing’s not even deadly unless you’re over 60 or have a bad pre-existing condition. There’s no reason to close schools, no reason to cancel every remotely fun event. If you’re in the high risk age group keep protecting yourself, but everyone else just let the damn thing spread around and (not) get people a little sick so we can build immunity and get it over with.
This. I had it and yeah it sucked but I've had worse illnesses in my life. I'd rather get kung-flu again than the actual flu which put me on death's door the last time I had it.

The disease is a weak fucking nothing burger.
