I am aware of the counter argument : If this is not done people will still die ..Hungry , without being able to pay for the basic necessities
But I do think there should be some way , such as Quarantine is extended but still the Sectors Instead of asking people to come to the office continues to work from Home.
Only in Europe, the auto industry alone provides 5 million jobs, those people will not be able to work from home for too long. Yeah, a part might work from home in design, accounting, promotion, but if you don't produce the actual cars there is no need for that anymore. And that's one part of the industry, what are you going to with the petrochemical branch, without that there are no plastic derivates (meaning no bags, no packages, no masks!!) it means no fertilizer, it means no food!
And what about the people that must go to their daily job!
You still need electricity, you need water, you need medics and firemen, and ...employees at chain stores and delivery men.
Oh, those can be sacrificed, right? You might be able to stay at home but only with other people leaving their homes for work.
No, a continuous quarantine the sam ewe had in March-April in the EU would be impossible for the entire year.
Besides...look at Sweden!
It had far more relaxed measures and its mortality rate is still below the UK, Spain or Belgium.
