Do lockdowns work to stop viruses like COVID-19 from moving around the planet?
In some countries borders were closed or airports shut down. Many have imposed lockdowns on the populations, forcing people out of work and into self-isolation at home when they weren't even sick.
Did this work? Did this change anything?
Looking at Sweden, it seems that the overall difference is minimal. But the longterm consequences of the lockdown matter. Increased unemployment, poverty, domestic abuse, child abuse, sexual abuse, suicides and starvation is projected to eclipse the death rate of COVID-19. This is almost certain to be the case, at least for the real amount of COVID-19 deaths that aren't the inflated numbers. Even so, these projections are based on the inflated padded numbers which makes them even worse by comparison.
So things will be worse due to the governments using fear to gain more control over people's lives. And they don't care how many lives their power grabs will cost. If they really wanted to save lives, they could have. But they choose to ignore the most at-risk group.
Governors focused on imposing fines and arrests on people who didn't obey theie authoritarian edicts, rather than isolate those truly at-risk (elderly, immune-compromised, etc.). Gov. Cuomo in New York even helped the elderly get infected by ordering nursing homes to be forced to take in COVID-19 patients, which helped COVID-19 spread among the elderly.
But getting back to the lockdown. Does a lockdown even stop a virus from spreading? Not so, according to a well-thought out explanation from Dr. Zach Bush. He explains what could be happening with pollution, human activity, plants and viruses like COVID-19.
Respiratory spit has been the focus in the media for the air-travel of COVID-19 via water droplets. These travel 2-3 feet. Aero-biology via airplanes is only one way for viruses to travel great distances. Planes will indeed help viruses spread quicker by a matter of 3-5 days.
Viruses are the most abundant microbes on the planet. Viruses play a role in the development of species. They are an intricate crucial part of our microbiomes. If it weren't for viruses, we wouldn't even exist.
Viruses will spread in a matter of weeks due to the airflow on the planet in their aerosol forms, as opposed to the droplet form. Viruses have been transmitting across the planet before airplanes showed up, and even before humans showed up.
What's more, is the normal distribution of a virus is changed due to pollution caused by human activity. In areas of high air pollution there can be an abnormal density of virus transmission in aerosolized particles.
It's possible that if we reduce our pollution in the environment, viruses would be more spread out in an even distribution, and less concentrated in clusters around high density populations. Viruses would then have less penetration into our lives. We can do this by using more public transportation, or moving around in other forms in warmer climates, such as by bike.
Also, given the high levels of hydrogen cyanide in our air pollution, this too would be reduced. With reduced cyanide levels, there would be a lower risk of death from the many so-called respiratory viruses.
Another factor is the amount of carbon and methane gases in the atmosphere that facilitates aerosolization of particulates. In the spring, summer and fall, plants adsorb much of the carbon dioxide leaving little. Then when plants are no longer absorbing carbon dioxide, the flu season starts. Plants also help reduce pollution.
The flu and viral illness seasons follow the cessation of absorption of carbon dioxide in nature from October into winter. The flu and viral illness season correlates very well with carbon in the atmosphere.
Does flu decide to start infecting people in a seasonal pattern just because the temperature changes? Would it make more sense that something else in the environment, like pollution and the gases such as carbon dioxide, are the reason viruses affect us more? There would be more viruses being concentrated in our high density populations as the re-absorption of carbon ceases. Again, the change in viral activity correlates well with carbon dioxide being absorbed in plants, or the lack thereof.
The pollution from human activity could be what actually creates the season of flu and viral-attributed respiratory disease. The quieting of the plant and microbiome of the soil negatively affects the "respiratory system" of the planet (so to speak) and humans.
What do you think of this explanation? I'm more convinced that the pollution and cyanide is the reason COVID-19 is even contributing to the death of a small percentage of the population.
Taking into account the inflated padded numbers of others deaths being attributed to COVID-19, and the neglect and incompetence reported at hospitals that cause people to die and get labeled a "COVID-19 death", I'd say the death rate is very similar to the flu. Pollution is the main reason for those deaths, not the virus itself.
Think of this: would there be all these deaths if there was no cyanide or pollution in our air? The pollution is the real problem.
You can't stop the most abundant microbes on the planet from moving around. Our foolish attempts to believe a lockdown can do this, is only hurting us as a society and as individuals. The control and enslavement of our lives increases while governments grow in power. We don't win in the lockdown. We lose.
