A lot of the contrary qualified medical views are that isolation, across the board, is a bad thing in the case of Covid19. A sterile environment weakens the immune system, and isolation ....across the board .... is really stupid for a large number of other reasons too. It shuts down the economy for starters, and makes normal living, day to day, difficult. If you want a robotic nation of surfs, totally controlled by a big brother entity, isolation makes a lot of sense, and that to me is the real purpose behind this Covid19 hoopla. Now, this just my opinion, it stems from what I have read by qualified medical practitioners in field, and I note with alarm and disappointment that censorship is widely used against valid counter arguments. The much lower death rate of influenza, including the induced hysteria over Covid19, could be better treated with clean water, good quality food, proper balanced diet with appropriate vitamins and exercise. These things have been shown to boost the immune system. Where are the politicians who are advocating such thing to promote good health for the citizens? There are few such cases, but you will see plenty of these politicians, world wide, promoting big pharma to the hilt. The people who have died from Covid19, excepting the cases where malpractice was involved, almost exclusively been where the victims immune system had been compromised. If the immune system is compromised the likelihood of death from Covid19 increases by a factor of ten (10x). The draconian lockdown across the board was a diabolical blunder. It also appears to me to have been pre planned and deliberate to cause the maximum damage to peoples health and to destroy the economy. A gigantic scam. Bernie Madoff was a piker.
