Are we not in this situation because of the 'information' peddled by the media, and more so by Twitter and the likes ? without that, the World would have gone on as normal, and all of this would have been put down to a bad 'flu' year, we have suffered from mass hysteria by some sectors, thinking it is certain death if they catch it, but when you think there are 8 billion people in the world and of those 500K have died, 1968 with an obviously lesser population, (4 billion) it is estimated 1 million died Worldwide, yet there was no lockdowns, the world did not stop, and we are still here ! 2009, (6.8 billion poulation) 575,000 died from 'swine flu', again we carried on and are still here, and 1958 Asian Flu, took over 1 million. ( 3 billion pop)
