If anything the poll demonstrates very clearly how people have been scared so much and well beyond the reality of the risks, that they are willing to consider such limitations should apply permanently.
Agreed. Let’s ignore the poll, it’s somewhat of a sideshow really. Lets stick to the scientific consensus. And to wit, let me quote again the WHO from earlier this week, directed specifically at the prospect of a country removing restrictions when cases are rising, as “epidemiological stupidity” and “moral emptiness”.
