To be fair, the initial goal was to not overwhelm hospitals, not stop it altogether.
I think that is true. However, there were obvious major repercussions from those lockdowns that crushed the economy and jobs with many businesses being forced to close. It didn’t help that the lockdowns weren’t applied across the board so big chain businesses were allowed to remain open while small family business were shut down.
Then there was the finagling with the election due to manufactured fear mongering.
What a flipping mess.
