To date the government hasn’t published much information on the cost:benefit of Covid-19 restrictions, including the lockdown. We believe that these restrictions and decisions do not adequately factor in the impacts outside of covid. Many people believe that the negative impact of restrictions outweighs those of the virus in terms of long term negative impact.
