Citing their latest research conducted at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel, a team of business and infectious disease experts assert that it was unnecessary for Israel and numerous nations around the world to enforce lockdowns in an attempt to control the coronavirus pandemic.
To determine whether countries truly needed to hold lockdowns, Jerusalem Business School professors David Gershon and Alexander Lipon, along with Hebrew University School of Public Health’s Prof. Hagai Levine – a leading infectious diseases, epidemiologist and physician – used a real-life data model and found that proper hygiene measures, including social distancing, washing hands, face masks and testing with 14-day quarantines for those with symptoms, make lockdowns unnecessary.
Lessons learned
Gershon found a way to avoid overrun hospitals during pandemics like COVID-19.
“The parameter that we decided to focus on is the number of ICU beds that are required,” Gershon told CBN News. “We looked at how many ICU beds you need when the pandemic enters a certain country.”

ReplyDeleteVietnam number has been reached & Passed !!! Wake UP !!
We know that the numbers are not accurate..yes, thousands have tragically died, but we are being lied to.. states are starting to retract covid death numbers because doctors and coroners were ordered to put the virus as cause of death, even if it wasn't...
DeleteThis nation and its families lost so many many more - not just in death because of Vietnam.
ReplyDeleteThe next Gen has no clue about Vietnam and need to take the time and do research - since THEY will eventually be in charge.

ReplyDeleteThis lockdown and other "containment" measures were never designed to last until the virus goes away (it won't) - it was only designed to spread out the cases so hospitals wouldn't be overrun with IC patients. I'm no scientist, but I can see that whenever things do open back up, the number of cases will spike again...as harsh as it sounds, we will need to develop herd immunity to this thing and that's only going to happen as more people are exposed. Since the majority of people who even have it don't exhibit symptoms, the likelihood that you have been exposed is pretty high...and you don't even know it!
ReplyDelete80,000 died of influenza in 2018 in the US. We didn't trash the economy.
ReplyDelete50 million unemployed because of the lockdown.
