Questions for lockdown apologists

May 2020. John Pospichal was on the ball. Multiple graphs, multiple countries… all telling the same story… leading to obvious, penetrating questions… which politicians and mainstream media were NOT asking.

The extracts below are to encourage you to read Part 1 and Part 2 in full – because the questions make most sense in the context of the graphs.

We now have mortality data for the first few months of 2020 for many countries, and, as you might expect, there were steep increases associated with the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in each one.

Surprisingly, however, these increases did not begin before the lockdowns were imposed, but after. Moreover, in almost every case, they began immediately after. Often, mortality numbers were on a downward trend before suddenly reversing course after lockdowns were decreed.
