At what point in time do you think COVID would have run its course? Late 2022/early 2023?

Honestly, there will problem be a COVID obsession for hundreds of years. People will be obsessed with COVID as long as it exists. And COVID-19 will probably exist for hundreds of years.

Bubonic plague still exists.

Democrats admit that lockdowns result in an upward transfer of wealth and greater wealth inequality, yet Democrats want more lockdowns anyway.

And Democrats claim to want more income equality.

The WHO also claimed SARS-CoV-2 isn't transmissible to humans. They also claimed it can't spread through aerosols. They also claimed China was open during the entire process. Yeah, great track record.

So you are pro-lockdown?
I think a lockdown might work, maybe, if you did it immediately after release. Some people think the virus was out many months before previously thought which would make the lockdown mostly useless except maybe to prep supplies. At this point, the cat is out of the bag and it makes no sense.

COVID-19 is really a complete nothing burger by historical standards.

People are just brainwashed into thinking it's actually a big deal.

A short term spike in mortality doesn't justify a global lockdown, especially when the deaths are in a population that's so frail that they even manage to die from vaccine side effects.

It won't stop. It will become permanently endemic. In 20 years the human lifespan will readjust and the disease will become simply another risk factor for the elderly, like influenza.

The World Health Organization is single handedly responsible for the pandemic spread of the virus. They made no pressure to stop international trade in the critical months, they didn't give mitigation guidelines to the general public such as making cheap masks and instead told everyone it was a nothingburger until actual economic damage was done.

The world health organization is not reliable. It's a waste of the world's tax money.

The lockdown is only useful as long as viral prevalence is under the endemic umbral. Lockdowns themselves are an intervention with benefits and risks, and depending on the management are therapeutic or cause iatrogenic damage.

In many countries, lockdown was arbitrarily enforced by people who knew nothing of public healthcare doing copycats of what other nations did. They enforced them with imprisonment of one sort or the other without taking into account the increased 'statistical protection' (to avoid the term herd immunity) on those who ignored the measures. Only 10 weeks of lockdown were needed to be on the safe side, with further adjustments to logistics and travel; however anything longer than that was useless and harmful.

No not single handedly. China fucking lied a lot too and probably some people in the US and other countries.
>They made no pressure to stop international trade in the critical months
Why the fuck would you need an organization to give guidelines for a virus when each country has their own institutions which can do this?
>The world health organization is not reliable.
True but that doesn't mean they are ALWAYS wrong. I think at this point, the WHO is right in saying that lockdowns won't work and are causing irreplaceable harm to economies.

>muh China
Every government is responsible for the healthcare of their respective populations. That's why Sentinel Surveillance is a thing, and as a matter of emergent diseases, both said government and the WHO are responsible of stopping population movements as necessary.

>Why the fuck would you need an organization to give guidelines for a virus when each country has their own institutions which can do this?
Because that's what we pay them for. Not only that, it's an economical global threat which falls under UN jurisdiction, it's ONE disease with the same fucking pathology in every fucking human, and most importantly, most countries of the world have shit public health institutions, and they all rely on the AUTHORITY of the WHO to define guidelines.

>I think at this point,
At this point whatever they say is inconsequential. They became negligent when they were needed the most. If they couldn't help in the current worst case scenario what makes you think they will help in worse cases?

I don't and I'm not advocating but I am simply saying that they are right on lockdown policy right now. Also, I find it funny to cite them whenever libs talk about lockdowns and criticize them for not "trusting the health experts and the science".
