Absolutely none of these commentators are looking at the first part of this quote - preemptive shutdowns have been a method to buy time while evidence accumulated. To now point and go "see I told you it wasn& #39;t so bad" after the science matures is idiotic. 1/3 #covid19 #auspol https://twitter.com/Adam_Creighton/status/1250046394787749889">https://twitter.com/Adam_Crei...

There& #39;s a difference between "let #sarscov2 rip through" and "let& #39;s take a moment granted to us by shutdowns to examine the science of re-infection/immunity/treatments/quarantine+testing infrastructure/epidemiology thru sero-surveillance before resorting to herd immunity". 2/3

These columnists have no concept of these nuances. They don& #39;t want to, because it would involve reading things beyond other opinion columns. 3/3 #covid19 #auspol
