    Sadly people adapt during times of poverty, but most importantly the economy will reopen and close and reopen the whole aim of the game is to manage the death/economic ratios over the next year or more
    Wish it was as simple as opening and closing the economy. Every day extra of lock down means more businesses that are not going to open and more people out of work. Poverty has a direct correlation with life expectancy and long term consequences due to malnutrition of children.

    A lock down may have been justified at end of March but not based on latest data and trends.

    800k people kill themselves a year because this world is evidently not such a great place to reside and we want to ruin the entire world wide economy for 8 billion who actually do want to live, because 270k died in 6 months ?
    And on a more cynical note. You should give that narrative to trump I'm sure he would run with it ... right down his alley... let them die ... we got shit to do ... very big important shit ... to do ... the biggest and most important ... more important then any life ...

    Boet my business closed down.. finished cheers... i service or used to service the restuarant industry... my household income cheers ... but instead of spewing anti propaganda i choose to fight for the right of life for those who are vulnerable because if we all pushed our selfish need to get the economy back open without fear or care for the reality of what we dealing with . Many .. many more people are going to die.

    And life expectancy of 50 is better then life expectancy of dead..

    Or they going to die anyway lets just get it over and done with and get back to it ...

    Got kids ? Or parents ? How's your will looking ?

    Are you this concerned about the 330/day deaths from TB in South Africa? A disease which has a vaccine and meds for treatment and is transmitted the same way as Corona, or did the TV man forget to tell you how to react to that one?

    I'll let you have the last word as I am not really interested in your condescending attitude. You don't know me so do not call me boet.

    Geeees I am probably alone on this, but this answer really struck so true - so valid - so FACT.
    Never thought about this angle.
