I understand completely OP.
Other countries who are easing their (proper) lockdowns have taken the very simple and easy measures of treating their patients. Early treatment has a relatively decent chance of survival. Antivirals, precautionary antibiotics to prevent secondary inflections, oxygen as soon as it's needed. Also more testing and contract tracing.
Our government is instead leaving patients to die at home or only admitted to hospital at a stage where survival is less likely.
If we followed suit of other countries and treated early we'd likely be able to look at safely easing lockdown. Some of these countries have smaller economies than us. If they're able to manage getting enough PPE for staff and the drugs we should be able to.
People not going to hospital for heart attacks and strokes (both can be caused by Covid btw) aren't frightened by the government's ever changing messages. They have brains and realise there's a highly contagious deadly virus around. They're faced with choosing between two bad options. That's because of the pandemic. It would be infinitely worse without lockdown.
Today a musician, one of the stranglers, died from Covid. He caught it in hospital.
People should still go if it's an emergency as precautions are being taken as best they can and early treatment for anything helps your chances of survival. It's also far safer to go now then when lockdown ends. But they also need to think about what happens if lockdown ended before the cases have reduced.
How do people think patients will get care if Covid spreads throughout the hospital to patients and staff alike?
There is a solution. A fairly simple one. It's no miracle but it would go a long way towards mitigating the damage caused by the pandemic. In terms of lives and the economy.
All we need to do is get enough PPE and drugs and oxygen and start treating patients early. Like I've said other countries have managed this. It's clearly not too difficult.
