THE COSTS AND benefits OF COVID-19 LOCKDOWNS AND RESTRICTIONS

 The benefits 😈

1. Pharmaceuticals are making windfall profits. Moreover, if their medical buddies profess that each variant needs a new vaccine, the drug industry will make astronomical amounts of money. Thank God, I invested in Pharmaceuticals.

 


2. As long as doctors can convince the world to continue restrictions and lockdowns to protect against Covid-19, the medical establishment will not have to face criminal negligence  lawsuits from the families of  cancer, heart and stroke, lung, kidney, liver, HIV/Aids, and other millions of Non-Covid 19 patients who died because they were neglected during the Covid-19 Panic.

 

3. Governments can continue to trample on Democratic and human rights with impunity as long as Covid 19 can be used as an excuse.



THE COSTS 


1.     Restrictions are causing the death of an estimated 120,000,000 people of starvation in developing countries because of the financial collapse of transportation and the food chain caused by Covid 19 Restrictions.


 

2.     Increased deaths from suicide, domestic violence (especially among female minority groups) and overdoses have been caused by the imposed social isolation, lock downs, and quarantines.

 

3.    Deaths from non-covid 19 illnesses like cancer; heart, lung, liver, and kidney disease; HIV AIDS, cholera, and many other non-covid 19 illnesses because the medical world has deemed testing, screening, treatment and surgery needed by these patients as being ELECTIVE!


 

4.     The restrictions have caused loss of jobs, loss of livelihoods and homes, destruction of small businesses, and huge government debt caused by the horrible impact of the ill-thought out Covid 19 restrictions.


 

5.    Many people in the world who have been frightened by the Covid 19 propaganda, have become so self absorbed with their own life situation that they are callous toward the fact that the restrictions are causing so much unnecessary death and destruction.


STOP BE BRAINWASHED AND APATHETIC ABOUT THE COSTS TO HUMAN BEINGS OF THIS COVID-19 HYSTERIA. READ ABOUT THE DAMAGE THE MEDICAL WORLD IS DOING TO ALL OF US AND OUR WAYS OF LIFE.


"The harmful consequences of public health choices should be explicitly considered and transparently reported to limit their damage, say Itai Bavli and colleagues ...

"Lockdowns can also cause long term health harms, such as from delayed treatment and investigations. Delays in the diagnosis and treatment of various types of cancer, for example, can allow progression of cancer and affect patients’ survival. A three month delay to surgery is estimated to cause more than 4700 deaths a year in the UK.13 In the US, delays in screening and treatment are estimated to cause 250 000 additional preventable deaths of cancer patients each year.14 Furthermore, a sharp decrease in the number of admissions for acute coronary syndromes and emergency coronary procedures has been observed since the start of the pandemic in the US15 and Europe.16 In England, the weekly number of hospital admissions for coronary syndromes fell by 40% between mid-February and the end of March 2020. Fear of exposure to the virus stopped many patients from attending hospital, putting them at increased risk of long term complications of myocardial infarction...

"The coronavirus pandemic is far from over. Many countries are already reeling from the effects of the pandemic response as well as trying to cope with additional waves of dangerous infection rates. Governments will have to make difficult decisions that rely on uncertain and changing data regarding the most effective approaches to contain the pandemic. Although the evidence on the adverse consequences of measures to control covid-19 continues to grow,1325262728 there remains a paucity of any such voices in the public and decision making conversation, which seems to convey a dominant narrative of pandemic mitigation at all costs. This is perhaps a reflection of the challenge of the moment, but we must adopt a more nuanced approach to understanding the pros and cons of different approaches.

A “zero covid” goal is neither realistic nor sustainable for most countries. Instead, public health needs to increase its investment into assessing the harms of policy options from different perspectives and to explicitly consider and transparently report the harmful consequences of public choices when deciding on and evaluating public health strategies to combat SARS-CoV-2. Epidemiologists, health economists, social scientists, psychologists, historians, ethicists, among others, must all contribute to these efforts and assist governments in making informed decisions—improving and protecting the health of all communities."

"As the crisis around Covid-19 evolves, it becomes clear that there are numerous negative side-effects of the lockdown strategies implemented by many countries. Currently, more evidence becomes available that the lockdowns may have more negative effects than positive effects. For instance, many measures taken in a lockdown aimed at protecting human life may compromise the immune system, and purpose in life, especially of vulnerable groups. This leads to the paradoxical situation of compromising the immune system and physical and mental health of many people, including the ones we aim to protect.

"Also, it is expected that hundreds of millions of people will die from hunger and postponed medical treatments. Other side effects include financial insecurity of billions of people, physical and mental health problems, and increased inequalities. The economic and health repercussions of the crisis will be falling disproportionately on young workers, low-income families and women, and thus exacerbate existing inequalities. As the virus outbreak and media coverage spread fear and anxiety, superstition, cognitive dissonance reduction and conspiracy theories are ways to find meaning and reduce anxiety. These behavioral aspects may play a role in the continuance of lockdown decisions. Based on theories regarding agnotology (i.e., the ways ignorance or doubt about certain topics is created by means of withholding or presenting information in a certain way), social influence, superstition and stress and coping, I seek to explain the social and behavioral aspects of human behavior in times of crises. Both the Covid-19 crisis itself as well as the resulting economic and (mental) health crisis are global problems that may require global solutions. I present a model of drivers and outcomes of lockdown behaviors and offer suggestions and a tool to counteract the negative psychological effects by means of online life crafting therapeutic writing interventions."
