Here is Dr. John Campbell on the situation in the UK:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_DDqsqhrfE Apparently abit over ~1,2% of people under 20, get long covid/lasting damage, and some disablities (ei. cant do same work afterwards ect).
While in middleaged groups this is over 4,7%. From a article written by 122 scientists in the field:
"July 4, 2021, 51% of the total UK population have been fully vaccinated and 68% have been partially vaccinated. Even assuming that approximately 20% of unvaccinated people are protected by previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, this still leaves more than 17 million people with no protection against COVID-19. Given this, and the high transmissibility of the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant, exponential growth will probably continue until millions more people are infected, leaving hundreds of thousands of people with long-term illness and disability. This strategy risks creating a generation left with chronic health problems and disability, the personal and economic impacts of which might be felt for decades to come."
"we consider any strategy that tolerates high levels of infection to be both unethical and illogical. The UK Government must reconsider its current strategy and take urgent steps to protect the public, including children. We believe the government is embarking on a dangerous and unethical experiment, and we call on it to pause plans to abandon mitigations on July 19, 2021."
The paper its from:

You know things are bad, when scientists (gather 122 of them in the field and) start doing point 1,2,3,4,5 ect
and reason out why this will backfire, if carried out.
Basically writeing a public paper together, begging goverment not to do it. |
