I am from South America. Only in Brazil 700000 people died because the ex president decided that he knew better than the doctors and the WHO. In Argentina, lockdown made a huge difference no matter what people say. Lives were saved. Data doesn´t lie. Hugs!

After about 1h10 of conversation Joshua says "it make sense to take these methods (shut everything down), if 2 millions are going to die". I'm listening to this on July 21st and as of today, almost 4 millions died in the US. I'm Italian and I really think the lockdown here saved a lot of lives.

And by the way, I think using guild to keep people inside, it’s really bad for everything.… Create fear into people for something they can’t really control. Don’t use your car or take walk, maybe you will distract someone, who will distract and cause a car crash that will kill a child. Or just talk to someone, maybe he will kill himself. All opposite can be, true. If you talk to someone, maybe that will help him enough to don’t do it, even save the car crash. Maybe, because you are staying inside, a lot will die or suffer. We can’t know this, the best is to try to our best, and but don’t think we can save everyone, or just more we this quarantine, collateral damage is really hard to know and can’t be on many year from now. If someone die around me, I can’t feel guilty, maybe I didn’t something wrong, but I’m not the virus, maybe I saved 10 younger life before that, we will never know. I will try to my best, but “the best” still subjective thing, maybe it’s not to try to save everyone. Please stop manipulating people with fear.
