    I don't have blind faith. I already set you straight on that.

    And I'm not for staying in your house. If people abide the safety measures they can in a lot of places and circumstances be out for hours a day...
    And the only one i saw who's seriously concerned with an 18 month lockdown is you. So if you want to entertain that scenario you shouldn't ask me to start it up.

    Doctors have reattached the severed hand of an Indian policeman who was attacked while enforcing the coronavirus lockdown in Punjab state.

    The assault took place on Sunday in Patiala district. Sub-inspector Harjeet Singh is recovering in hospital.

    Eleven people, reportedly from the Nihang Sikh religious sect, have been arrested in connection with the attack.

    All Indian states are in lockdown until 15 April as part of efforts to halt the spread of coronavirus.

    Doctors said the surgery was very complex and challenging, but sub-inspector Singh was likely to make a full recovery.

    Officer's hand severed in lockdown attack is saved

    Shouldn't be so hard to list the blatant lies here if you noticed them being said so clearly. Would be appreciated! :)

    Answer the question, what is the plan?


    Everyone stay in their house so the number of ICU beds doesn't get overwhelmed ......

    ....until what?

    As i understand until the curve flattens and medical equipment and help is adequately managed. But it could also be they need to verify certain statistics in how it really spread and affected the population. So they know better what they're doing.
    As you notice I don't claim to know everything. Just like the experts. Only you pretend to know things better. And it's good and worthwile to keep nuancing and correct you, because you don't.

    It seems China was a bit naive about quitting their lockdown already.

    Thanks, you just admitted those experts don't know what they are doing at the moment. Thus, there is no plan

    I will hang on to that quote

    Lol... tragic. They have a plan but don't know a lot of this new virus yet. That's just the way it is. I'm not admitting something strange there... Why put it as such? Aren't they upfront about that in most western countries?
    It's not a secret the plan will be adjusted as we progress. We are in lockdown because its certain (also healthy) people will unneccesary die otherwise + immediate chaos in several aspects of society would commence right away.

    And again, next northern hemisphere winter, you have a flu season twice as bad, because everyone has been seperated for months, along with the same number of covid deaths, a whole bunch of those countries in Europe flat out broke, along with their health systems.

    Where is the plan for next winter? You can't train a bunch of new doctors in 10 months

    And I said same number of covid deaths, it's only a relative small chance, based on the viruses virility and ability to stay dormant in cells, but since it has spread a lot further now, there is a slim chance it could come back X ten next winter

    All assumptions over the last couple months have been based on this virus acting like the flu rather than like the common cold

    There never was any plan beyond a few months

    Could you now also pay me the same respect and answer my question. Are they putting it different in your country or something?

    If it turns out to be detrimental to put people on lockdown like this, it seems like they will learn from the mistake and plan appropriately for next year. Or so we would hope.

    But as everyone has openly admitted--no one knows what the "best" plan of action is. There is no control group in life. I guess we will see how it goes this time next year.

    You seem certain they're not busy with that. I'm not.
    It's not like the majority of doctors are gone then.
    Besides, common health personnel is in fact trained to fulfill critical positions or get more expertise. Here at least. And yes, a lot can be done in ten months in that regard. I don't think you know what you're talking about here...
    Correction: There is no fixed long term plan yet. Which makes sense as certain variables are simply uncertain yet.
    Just because you act like you know things about their long term plans doesn't mean you aren't speculating just like anybody else.
    And then you try to bait people who counter your bull as if they're supposed to know things for certain... Nice try. No cookie

    I asked him his take a few days ago on a video he posted and he didn't respond. Clearly a sign he's taken on Expert status amidst the pandemic.

    I believe so

    School's open after Easter. Private schools are under federal funding so will have to. Public schools it's up to the states, ultimately that comes down to how many mother's are going to send their kids to school...and after 3,4 weeks at home 24/7...well

    And we never had the police or military personnel for a full lockdown anyway

    Those are all short term changes. I'm asking about the long term plans you were hinting at. But perhaps they differ because different countries, different circumstances and so different long term plans.
    Anyway, you acting like the experts in my and other western countries are fooling us about the long term plans or that they have none whatsoever remains bogus.

    More like you hope I don't know

    How exactly are they going to replace the doctor's that died in 10 months?
