The lockdown was a reasonable decision at the time when there was a belief that we had a ventilator gap, because nobody bothered to read the papers written by Chinese doctors on how ventilators don't work (66% to 90% mortality.)

Now we know it was a mistake. And we should re-evaluate the information we have and end the lockdown.

It was a mistake because we (the US) still don't have adequate testing or tracing capabilities, and no cure in sight.
