In the middle ages doctors used to "bleed" their patients when they didn't know what to do or had no other protocol.

I looks at the lock down as "economic bleeding" to "help" the citizen patient because we know best. Wow, 21 century middle age bleeding...

The difference is that bleeding didn’t help health.

Economic bleeding, on the other hand, is a proven benefit to physical health.
