Done!
Important to see the reality: each time that the epidemic curves come down a little bit in Europe, lay people and some colleagues are pleading for a more “relaxed” attitude or more “surgical” interventions (e.g. only focus on the elderly and let the youngsters free).
But then the virus strikes back and causes first the exponential growth of infections, followed by hospitalizations and by mortality. (Geert Molenberghs uses the metaphor of “three giants that wake up each other”). Result: HCW are overwhelmed, the whole care system gets exhausted and society suffers…..
Clearly, in Europe with the “baby boomers” growing old, we have to choose between two options:
During the March-April lockdown, my neighbor (who is 85, has a heart condition and survived prostate cancer) said: This complete lockdown situation is worse than the second world war.
Together with my neighbor, I choose for the first option, because it is reasonable and right and therefore I signed the petition.
