Mathematical error caused unnecessary lockdowns that exacerbated the deaths resulting from Covid19. IFR and CFR mix up: https://www.rt.com/op-ed...d19-math-mistake-panic/
gives credence to Tanzania model of go8ng its own way.

Useless mathematics. That's my term for it. A lot of education without simple logic or commonsence is just as dangerous as an alshabaab holding a bomb. No need to name them. They know themuselofus
Politics is just things to keep the people divided and foolish and put your trust in men and none of them can do nothing for you...

China was the first to impose lockdown in January and then Italy in late February.

I don't think they were using CFR and IFR mathematics from US.

So the theory that lockdowns in all countries were based on a mathematical error does not hold water.

Whichever way we want to look at it,the fact is people have died especially in the US.A uncomfortably large number of people have died

The lockdowns helped lower the speed of spread.

We are wiser now and less scared.

Israel to impose three-week national lockdown

"Israel is to impose a new national lockdown - becoming the first country in the world to take such a measure to contain the spread of coronavirus.
It will begin on Friday and last three weeks, including Jewish new year.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the measures would "exact a heavy price on us all", but the country faced a surge with 4,000 new daily infections."

Its not ending soon.The decision to keep safe remains yours.
We are all tired of the "lockdowns " and restrictions.The government can do very little to enforce the guideline.Literature tells us second waves are more deadlier

Last week the numbers started growing again.

Keep safe.

The original lockdowns were necessary. Now that we understand the disease better, its time to start going back to normal starting with reopening schools.

Schools are a tough one.A combination of the large numbers of kids hence large exposure,parents fear and kids fear not to mention the boarding school set-up for most schools

Not easy.I support the phased reopenning so that we go through the learning curve.

Lockdowns - yes! Restrictions? I don't think those are going away anytime soon.

When this pandemic began, public health experts issued dire warnings about the devastating effects it would have in Africa.


Just weeks ago, Kenya was girding for the worst. As the country reported hundreds of cases daily, the health minister asked schools to prepare rooms to isolate all the people hospitals wouldn't be able to treat. Cemeteries dug mass graves. But then, just as quickly as the cases rose, they plummeted.

This happened because the government relayed on foreign data.
There is also one factor we should look at. Thieving experts. Our scientists and ministry officials maybe knew the effects this infection but decided to use scare tactics so that they can fill their stomachs. They had the presidents full attention and they used him to issue directives that allowed them to steal.
In the meantime mwananchi sufferd worse than the infection could bring.

There is a spike in deaths of people in my circles who are aged 60 and above. No attribution to Covid but most of the deaths are sudden, accompanied with breathing problems and fever.

All of a sudden we are told dead bodies can't transmit.
At this rate,we might finally be told that even masks were not necessary.
