I hadn't read it but saw a news item about it. Without wishing to sound callous, the numbers don't justify hamstringing the economy.

So we've hamstrung the economy and we've already had 12,000+ deaths, how many do you think we would have without these restrictions in place?

I have five friends who work in hospitals and three of those work on what could be described as the front line. All of them are regularly posting messages on Facebook asking everyone to follow the guidelines. Thankfully, only one (who works in England) seems to be really struggling at the moment. The four who work in Wales appear busy but things where they work seem to be just about under control.
Meanwhile, my mate's mum, who retired as a nurse about eighteen months ago, has gone back to work on her old ward, freeing up another member of staff to concentrate on Covid-19 patients, and I noticed yesterday that the doctor who has been my GP for most of my life and who retired a couple of years ago has also gone back to work.
If this is all a hoax, it's a pretty far-reaching one.

During a pandemic of this nature, wouldn't the economy be pretty much hamstrung anyway? Sure, plenty of idiots would attempt to go about their daily routines as usual, but with a virus like this one on the loose doesn't it stand to reason that most people wouldn't be out and about shopping or eating or going to the pub or the theatre or spending money in their other normal ways anyway?

That's anyone's guess. I'd say a similar number to that of leaving the economy open while urging those most at risk to stay indoors to protect their health by way of relaying government adverts with that message during every commercial break. I was struck yesterday by the percentage of oldies out and about... and of the say, 5%, of all people viewed who wore masks, I didn't spot any elderly with one on.

Gunman, I've grown weary of repeating the same message. In both 1918 and 1957 everyone just got on with it to let the virus burn through and do its worst. People were free to take their own precautions.

It's not anyone's guess though, there are pretty accurate statistical models that look at this. Even if you look at the best case ones with no restrictions there would be an exponential increase in infections and deaths, even if you are isolating the most at risk.
I'm not sure what your point is about seeing people out and about, there's nothing wrong with getting some fresh air. Living in London the number of people on the streets and in the parks near us must be about 1% of what it normally is at this time of year, so keeping distance is very easy, I assume that's the same elsewhere too.

It's almost like the situtations are very different in all aspects of the virus and life since 1918!
We are likely to have 20,000 deaths by the end of next week. If we'd had zero restrictions we would have been looking at at least 100,000 (and that's being optimistic). Would having a couple of months without restrictions made enough difference to the economy for you to let 100,000 people die in a month?
Even with the restrictions this is going to alter our way of live at least for the next 6 months. Do you not think it would have been even worse without the restrictions?

In the very post of yours above the one I've quoted here you're trying to one up TLG by saying how much you know about this pandemic and others, yet just a few short weeks ago you were insisting (again, knowledgably) the Chinese invented it to control their population and that only Asian people would get it, which has turned out to be utter, utter embarrassing nonsense. You can't deny that, it's all there in writing, and it doesn't fit into this little picture you're trying to paint that you're a clever guy so when I point it out to you your only answer is to say you don't want to engage because "I'm a troll"
You can pretend you're anything other than a conspiracy theorist who doesn't have a clue as much as you want but unfortunately for you the proof is all there in your post history.

Put another way, it's tons of hype with very little substance to those who choose to look beyond the hype, which you and others appear incapable of.

As far as I'm aware (and you can correct me if I'm wrong), in 1957 the Asian Flu killed around 14,000 in the UK. The first case was reported in June and the peak wasn't hit until mid-October, when 600 deaths in a week were recorded. (Source: British Journal of General Practice)
Doesn't that suggest that Covid-19 is already significantly more of a risk than Asian Flu was?

I didn't envisage at the time of writing those that a few months later a third of the globe's population would be under a form of house quarantine and all bar a minuscule percentage would be non-Chinese residents. I understand, but haven't checked, there's at least three different different strands of this virus.

'PLANdemic' - posted by Organ Morgan 15:34pm on 15th April 2020
I'm glad that you are all gathered here on the politics forum for my big announcement.
The Coronavirus PLANdemic is just as it sounds, it is all a hoax by the Bilderbergs/NWO to make cash extinct. They have co-conspired the Chinese government to create a strain of virus that was originally supposed to wipe out a large portion of the elderly in China (with the hope of wiping out some dissidents in HK too) but the strain mutated and began to effect non-Asian people and has gotten out of control in that respect.
It is still only effecting the old and vulnerable so the fit and healthy among us will be fine - but the shadowy puppet masters are ensuring that they can use this to their advantage by imposing new laws to remove our civil liberties. It wasn't part of the original plan but they have used the mutated virus to their advantage by tanking the economy and ensuring that the citizens of the world are living in constant fear and obedience.
Here is a YouTube video from a former US government biochemist who explains that it is no coincidence that Wuhan was the location for the 'outbreak' and it's links to manufacturing biological weapons has been an open secret for a long time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
The Spanish Flu killed far more people than the Coronavirus yet life went on afterwards and the economy was not decimated by a fake PLANdemic. It is so obvious to those who are not blindly following the .Gov textbook that this could all be over in a matter of weeks if the virus is allowed to disappear naturally (there will be a small amount of collateral damage, but nothing near what the Black Death caused).
Here is a graph from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) from 2000 (PRE 9/11!) showing how allowing viruses to take the natural course is better than trying to control it with social changes as the latter can cause further mutations and immunity to drugs https://cdn.statcdn.com/Infographic/...mal/18196.jpeg
Thanks for attending my TED Talk on this subject. TLG and Delmbox can continue to self-isolate the hell out of themselves and follow the fake narrative pushed by Johnson and co. should they wish. I'm going to continue to be a free thinker and leave the house every 5 weeks to visit the capital and count old people.

This isn't entirely true, in 1918 social distancing was implemented in the USA for example and schools, shops, churches and restaurants were closed down and public gatherings were banned.
At the beginning of 1918 women weren't able to vote in this country, but it seems even then some still recognised that pandemic interventions were necessary.

Happened here too I'm afraid:
"In many towns, theatres, dance halls, churches and other public-gathering places were shut, some for months."

Bear in mind this was an era when we were still weighing up whether women could be trusted with a vote.

I take it, then, that you are not prepared to save anyone or help our NHS if it harms the economy. Shame you wouldn't say that directly.
Perhaps I can put it another way. Sorry if I sound like an arse here, but would you be happy to lose every relative and friend as long as the economy is ok, not that I'd wish this horrid virus on anyone? I'm genuinely trying to get some perspective here of how important you view life and view the economy.

Re: A challenge to Organ Morgan
An interesting piece on why people refuse stubbornly to change their minds. We can't help it a lot of the time.
Why do many people staunchly defend their opinions and beliefs even in the face of overwhelming evidence that their ideas and views are totally incorrect? One explanation is the common phenomenon of cognitive dissonance.
Cognition is simply thinking and reasoning. It is the mental process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, reason, analysis of information, and experience. Dissonance is a musical term that means a lack of harmony among musical notes, but can also mean a tension or clash that results from disharmonious or contradictory components.
In psychology, cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort experienced by a person who simultaneously holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values. The discomfort is triggered by a situation in which a person’s belief clashes with new evidence introduced to that person. To reduce the psychological discomfort, the person will have to change either their mind or their behavior so that the inconsistency or contradiction is resolved, thus restoring mental balance and emotional harmony. That is, cognitive consonance.
This phenomenon, first described by Leon Festinger in 1957, helps explain why so many people will vigorously defend, excuse, justify, and keep their sacred beliefs even when confronted with irrefutable proof they are wrong.
