So lockdown was to ensure the NHS wasn't overwhelmed by too many patients at once. The death rate is too high to ease restrictions but when they do the death rate will go back up again. Then we'll hit a second peak . The government want to reduce the risk of that.
Yet how can they? Am I wrong in thinking that no matter how long we are in lockdown for we will still have a second peak? If so is there a point to continuing lockdown? Or maybe I'm being thick and I have misunderstood? Surely a second peak will happen no matter how long lockdown continues or is it purely to ease the pressure on the NHS?
