Lockdown and total restriction of movement for months on an end is a blunt tool that belongs to the Middle Ages, not in 2020. The amount of destruction it caused and keeps causing is yet to be evaluated. One thing is for sure - this is not the way forward. Hence, PPE and social distancing regulations used in some sensible way should not upset anyone. The alternative to this is "a new normal" of poverty, violence, despair and significantly curtailed opportunity in every walk of life - with all due consequences for people's health, quality of life and life expectancy.
