Anonymous, we have a recent example in history of letting a virus 'burn out', namely the spanish flu.
The first wave was actually not terrible, maybe some people thought it had 'burned out' after that stage.
The second wave that returned had mutated into a monster before it finally 'burned out' leaving 50- 100 million dead. India, was once again, hit badly
Thats why everyone whining about how bad we have it because of lockdowns, and lets get guns and fight the government, arent learning from history, and, actually how fortunate we are to even have a vaccine to prevent a possible worse catastrophe.
