Please sit down one day, in a quiet place, undisturbed, and pore through the literature on COVID-19 pathology.

Look at the scans, slides, autopsies.

Then do something to mitigate the oncoming catastrophe.

Prepare the brief on projected chronic disease burden->

-> and present it to parliament.

Every single MP should be made aware of what the potential damage could be. From the confirmed neuropathology and autoimmune issues, to the projected pathology and human lifespan we may expect. ->

This is critical for future planning in every area of life, from what age people should plan to start a family, to how mortgages and life insurance should be planned.

The government must be made aware that infecting every human in the country will

a) make very little difference to severe disease and death in the future in the long term (may even worsen this due to organ failures)

b) cause terrible strain on the economy and health system

The rampant circulation of disease may even impact Britains ability to defend itself over the next decade. If everyone is suffering from heart/lung/kidney issues, who is going to be fit to crew a submarine for example? Fly a fighter craft?

These are jobs that require tip top physical fitness and a good deal of reserve.

So please, for the future of the country, commence mitigation. You may yet spare a small percentage from the serious damage that will accumulate over time.
