edit: Hadn't seen the tweet, though of course her 'it was dead' was another kind of dead in plenty of places.

The government had its lockdown boots on well before the general public had even got out of bed really, so we're fooling ourselves if we think the opinion of the general public this way or that at any stage actually means much of anything.

Not well before at all seeing as though the hindsight lefties claim we should’ve locked down a week earlier saving thousands of lives. That’s actually debatable seeing as firstly most of the deaths at that time were in care homes and it now looks as though hard lockdown countries outside of SE Asia are experiencing bigger and more virulent return of Covid.

But more to the point, we locked down everyone to protect mainly the very elderly and then a few million more with low immune systems. We knew after the first few weeks who this was killing. Once we knew thousands upon thousands weren’t going to be filling up hospitals and on ventilators we should’ve been honest to the public and told them what the risk really was. The economic suicide and long term damage to health and death from other illnesses takes some believing when you know who is at risk, who isn’t and the percentage risk of all groups we knew early in. All of the ‘we’re learning about the disease and we don’t know enough and didn’t early on’ is a load of pony and excusing our lack of backbone. But they don’t mind saying we should’ve locked down earlier which it’s turning out to be more and more difficult to prove if that would’ve been more beneficial anyway. Just different people would die or possibly more eventually.
