The government of the United Kingdom recently asked its
citizens to cut off all unnecessary contact with other people, including friends
and family, in response to recommendations from a British research
team. Brits are also supposed to self-quarantine for 14 days if anyone in their
home has a cough or a fever. What’s more, the researchers also averred that if
the world’s lockdown measures are to truly be effective, they would need to be
in effect for 12
to 18 months.
Doggone it. Does that make anyone
else want to call the Euthanasia Society to see if they deliver? Oh well, as the
Brits themselves say, “keep your pecker up!”
Aris Katzourakis, a
Professor of Evolution and Genomics at the University of Oxford, stated that the
aggressive social distancing measures implemented now might only “buy time” for
the U.K. and other countries to eventually implement aggressive high-tech
tracking and surveillance measures. He added, “Once you get things under
control, with a lot of targeted surveillance, there are ways of locally
relaxing restrictions and returning to some level of activity. [But] it will
never be the same until there is a cure, or a vaccine. ‘Returning to normal’
simply isn’t something we should expect to see for a very, very long time.”
It will never be the same? Hmm. The report essentially says that if even one person in the world
has the coronavirus, the risk of the virus spreading will require us, meaning
governments, to implement aggressive measures to stop it.
Should this report
be heeded, that is it for human life on Earth. Ironically, a purported attempt
to (unrealistically) minimize the number of deaths will have guaranteed
many more… and rendered freedom extinct along with those who perished. The
world economy would be virtually destroyed, people destitute, hopeless,
deranged. Domestic abuse, addiction and depression would be rampant. Civil
unrest would jeopardize the lives of those who hadn’t already taken their own.
Shouldn’t “aggressive
measures” be taken to prevent this scenario?
