The Bizarre Politics of the Lockdown Process

Many of these countries have a relatively young population, whereas we knew from the beginning that this virus, you know, heavily, heavily disproportionately affects the old. Many of these are warm sort of tropical or subtropical countries, where people live much of their lives outside. And then a final thing that's remarkable is these countries deal with much more serious diseases on a daily basis. So I guess the question given the kind of bizarre and seemingly just,you know, almost nonsensical quality of imposing these policies beyond its terrible impacts that it had, what how do you explain that the way that India and then other low income countries kind of jumped on this bandwagon? It's hard to fathom.
