very good points. also think. majority of people will survive on minimum and unhealthy starch heavy food. that will only reduce their fitness and capacity of their body to fight and make them gradually more susceptible to the onslaught with time. I'm talking about this.

my guess is, for our huge populations, the slowdown of growth from lockdown can only buy some time to expand healthcare, beds equipment etc. but soon enough the point will come when the capacity will become inadequate in our country. just a matter of time. then people who could have been saved by very good care will die in massive numbers due to insufficient care. restriction will not stop that point. just delay that.

but I'm saying that, with this extended lockdown, even those who could go through an infection without much care and external help now and live, will become too weak to fight it by the time they gets infected. and that will only increase the final total.

now i have no hard data to show that this will be significant increase. but i think for a country like mine, it will be.
