MrDribbles, 1 person dies and it effects multiple people. That death could have been avoided which makes the situation we are in now even worse.
1 death of a loved one effects let's say 9 others on average. That's mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters and so on. So that's 2000 people's lives everyday being torn apart. That will likely be 10000 people's lives a day by the time Christmas comes. Then you have the 1000 people being rushed to hospital every day not knowing how Covid will affect them. That's another 10000 lives a day being affected. Again this will likely be 30-40k per day come Christmas.
This isn't just about a death rate number that is only 0.04% if you say so. This is about the millions of lives that have and will continue to be affected over the next few months needlessly because this government continues to dismiss Covid.
Let's learn to live with Covid by all means, but let's do it safely and use the defences we have at our disposal. Government will wake up eventually but by then millions more lives will be turned upside down needlessly.
