The UK gov did experiment with regional restrictions during lockdown 2 but it just wasn’t working, so I guess the data you’re after is out there but just not publicly available.
You could always ask for it using a freedom of information request, however the world’s data suggests that lockdowns and the measures put in place do in fact prevent the spread of airborne diseases as the infection rates always drop after stringent lockdown measures.
Perhaps, but if this information is being withheld for a public health crisis, it suggests something is wrong with it.
I have to stick to my original points. Without a control group, without normalizing the other data for time, temperatures, etc., without accurate and reliable diagnostic methods, without the hysteria of calling everything a COVID case and every death a COVID death - the numbers are simply bullshit.
If you want to base an argument on something, that’s fine but don’t do it on faulty testing methodology.
There’s a chance they’ve published it somewhere, for example during one of the conferences they hold every couple of days, however I’ve not watched them all.
I’ll look if I have some time. Numbers are interesting to me.
