The NHS is undoubtedly something we should cherish. However, the idea of &#8216;protecting the NHS&#8217; may be a noble one. However, the National Health Service is just that. A service to the British public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, I question the logic of this statement of &#8220;Protecting the NHS&#8221;. It&#8217;s a irony that the general populous has been in-prisoned by a service that should serve us (not the other way around). It would appear that the NHS has been used as a mechanism to actually enslave healthy people in quarantine via lockdown.  None of it makes sense&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask yourself the questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>How many extra people would have really ended up in hospital?<\/li><li>How many extra people would have died?<\/li><li>Would hospitals really have become stretch to over capacity?<\/li><li>Did we save lives?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer to this is to look at Sweden and South Korea. As of July 2021:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Sweden has 1436 deaths per million people. (no lockdown)<\/li><li>South Korea has only 36 deaths per million people. (no lockdown)<\/li><li>UK has had 1879 death per million people. (hard lockdown) <\/li><li>Italy has had 2112 deaths per million people (hard lockdown)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Make of that what you wish&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This statement is something that you will have heard non-stop for the past 1.5 years.
