What are the statistical risks for those without underlying health conditions? I think pretty low?
My understanding is that without the lock down measures the NHS would be unable to cope with those who succumb as a result of existing health conditions and/or the elderly ie 70 plus.
A few younger people, seemingly healthy, have lost their lives to the virus but in absence of a post mortem it may be that the victims had undiagnosed existing health conditions.
This is the NHS at its worse. Tick boxy stats. They put people into boxes and then if you do not fit in the chosen box you are ignored.
My uncle who was 47 went to opticians and mentioned he thinks he may have a macula degeneration in his left eye- he was sent to hospital, after an examination, only to be told no way -too young go away and don't worry. 4 years later. almost blind with macula degeneration. It is unheard of in someone so young BUT he didn't sit in the correct tick boxy thing. this is what happened with the COVID19 saying over 70's should stay indoors and only those with underlying health conditions blahblah. When all the while the doctor in China who discovered the virus and its spread-was a young healthy doctor!!
