Is Hamilton run by idiots?

RE: Lockdown predicted for Hamilton

Hamilton must be run by idiots, idiots who don’t follow the science, don’t learn from experience, and are, by Einstein’s definition, insane – doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

The science is that lockdowns do nothing to change the course of the pandemic.  The experience of two waves in Ontario is that lockdowns initially force case numbers to go up because people who are confined to apartment buildings or multi-unit dwellings eventually are all breathing the same air.  There isn’t a single scientific study that shows that lockdowns work, and if one did, it could say what works well and what doesn’t.

The purpose of lockdowns was always to protect the health care system from being overwhelmed.  It was never to “stop the spread.”  In the course of two waves, the health care system was never close to being overwhelmed, and so why is prospect, the threat, of yet another lockdown being raised now?  The health care system is under no pressure.  If you think lockdowns will slow the spread, read paragraph 1 again.  Lockdowns control people, they don’t control the virus.

Except for the extremely sick, a little infection never hurt anyone.  That’s why it’s better to be out and about strengthening your immune system by constantly fighting off little sicknesses.  Problems arise when one’s immune system is allowed to get lazy from lack of challenge.  Use it, or lose it; and the so-called experts are forcing people to lose it.

When are people going to wise up and rise up against the stupidity that is running the city, the province, and the country?
