no one is being 'sacrificed' (except those who actually die because of the recklessness of others
But people are being sacrificed for lockdown. People are killing themselves. People are being made homeless and losing life savings. Children are going hungry. Illnesses are being missed while gps lockdown surgeries.
You personally may only be sacrificing a bit of socialising on the weekend. Others are literally sacrificing everything.
Would you be prepared to give up your home and life savings for lockdown like others have?
Would you be prepared to watch your children slink into a depression?
If you lost someone you loved due to suicide, would you still think lockdown is worth it?[/quote]
The data - not the anecdotes - is not showing a surge in suicide right now.
But do you know what take does cause a surge in suicide? To the point where there are very specific guidelines about reporting suicide?
Talking about suicides and suicide attempts. Saying that lots of people are attempting suicide. THIS leads to increased suicide attempts.
So watch yourself please.
