Many have suspected this. Look at New Zealand... - .they locked down that island-nation tight. Posted: Sep 18th, 2020 - 6:19 am In Reply to: Growing research indicates many COVID-19 cases might not be - infectious at all
They even restricted flights from China, but since their leader hates guns she got off Scott-free on the xenophobia charge.
They snuffed the virus and "opened" the country. They didn't have a case for about 100 days and lectured the world about how great they were.
Aaaaand then, miraculously (!), a case appeared...and then another...and then they locked down Auckland. While many people in NZ are ok with this practice, a few are saying the ups and downs are murder on them.
NZ's overzealous lockdowns probably shaved a good 2.6 percentage points of growth potential off their 2nd quarter GDP. It didn't even account for suicides, increased stress levels or spousal or child or drug abuse, etc.
"Containment" as a strategy is as effective as Deep Woods Off..it may work for a while, but eventually it wears off and you get chewed up.
