A long-suspected fear of the Covid-19 lockdowns is starting to come to light. In many parts of the world doctors are pointing to a very real probability that lockdown orders are leading to people dying from other serious maladies as a result of avoiding hospitals. Heart attacks in particular are now looked at as a cause of death greater than the coronavirus itself.
Almost from the beginning of our pandemic lockdowns there have been questions raised over both the wisdom behind the decisions and the broad application of the quarantine orders. Recall early on that Americans were lectured about the necessity of a two-week lockdown “to bend the curve,” yet with the death rate plunging, we still have many areas in the country under harsh restrictions.

I have been saying this from the beginning. But i was accused of wanting to kill my handicap mother because of my concerns and for not going along with it.

Small price to pay, say the dems, if it gets Trump out of office.
Its funny that the “follow the science” crowd will live or die on what a medical bureaucrat says, but will disregard what actual front line doctors say.
No one cares.
The wuhan virus is the latest “crisis” that will NOT be wasted, and nothing will be allowed to get in its way.
post of the day!
Yep. People committing suicide, dying from drug overdoses, not getting needed medical care and so on, are just eggs to be broken in the making of their Leftist omelette.
Gee, no kidding. A lot of us have been saying this from the start. There has also been no thought to the overuse of hand sanitizers, antibacterials, and obsessive cleaning of everything. It’s been known for a long time that over application of these products as well as taking antibiotics for routine problems can lead to killing off the weaker strains of bacteria as well as the bacteria that is beneficial to our well being. What that leaves is the resistant strains of the more deadly strains that can break out and spread; like staph aureus skin eating bacteria, bacterial meningitis, even bubonic plague. With all of the masking, skin and mouth infections on the face are already showing up. There are consequences for obsessive behavior.
56,000,000 people in the world die every year from one thing or another....
