Why not just isolate the elderly sick people and institute measures to deal with them. Let everyone else lead a normal life while wearing a mask and social-distancing.
In European cities while lockdown was on, half the supermarkets were required to open all night. (not till 8pm which doesnt make sense)
And jogging was permitted individually but WITH A MASK. Dan's got it the wrong way around. When you are jogging and running past pedestrians you breathe heavier and deeper. So why no mask for joggers?
Fishing was permitted but individually, not in groups, but not in Victoria.
Also having people isolate indoors for 6 weeks (not many will go out to exercise) decreases one's immunity physically and mentally.
The curve had already flattened. Cases were not rising expotentially. Why the lockdown?
