[UK] Govt Scientists Suggest Tier 4 Lockdown Could Become Nationwide, Last Until Easter
Breitbart ^ | 12/22/2020 | Victoria Friedman

Tier 4 lockdown restrictions could be enforced across the whole of England as a new strain of the Chinese coronavirus spreads across the country, the government’s chief scientific adviser has said. The architect of the first lockdown claimed that Tier 4 could last until April.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson forced England into a three-tier system at the beginning of December, after the country had just come out of a second national lockdown in November. The tiered system resulted in around 99 per cent of the population under the two strictest levels, Tier 2 and Tier 3.

30 people hospitalized in the county today for Covid. But restaurants, most churches, gyms, etc. are shut down.

See? The shut down is working......../s

See, see the lockdown is working. Just imagine how much higher the hospitalization number would be without the lockdown.

India ... is actually one of the lowest.

There is a reason for their success. They are allowing widespread distribution to the public of hydroxychloroquine/zinc/antibiotic as a preventative/cure. One can buy a full treatment package in a local drugstore for around $1.75.

It's easy-peasy when you allow the correct medical treatments for this disease instead of allowing it to destroy your country for political reasons.

“So why again are we doing these crazy things which are ruining our country and people’s lives?”

While it’s true that the India’s recent infection and death rates are roughly 1/40th of the United States, the fact is that India is using Ivermectin for prevention and early treatment, so they’re cheating and shouldn’t be held up as a country to emulate...as we all know that Ivermectin doesn’t work.

“ Are they trying to destroy their economy on purpose?”

Yes.

Next question.

I could see that. Hopefully they ran the numbers wrong. They might succeed and achieve all of their wildest dreams...or they might fail spectacularly, and beg for mercy in the last and longest hours of their lives...

Yes, but it’s the hospitals that are inflating the curve with cancer, heart problem and respiratory deaths attributed to Covid-19 for the money. So, it all evens out.

-- Until Easter?? --

My question is "Which year?"

The politicians are never going to give up this new magic power that "public heath" gives them. Courts stand off when the legislators say "public health." Public health trumps EVERYTHING.

Only time will tell, but history has shown us what people who are fighting for their very freedom are like.

CA is filled with at least 200k homeless.
You don’t see dead homeless everywhere in CA.
You DO see them sleeping in parks and abandoned cars.

The difference between countries like India and here is their immune system. In the poorer countries they build good immunity against everything or die. Like drinking water in Mexico.

Here we are coddled and do not develop strong internal strengths. What would give them a bad day kills us.
