Given covid deaths peaked on April 8, meaning that infections must have peaked before 'lockdown' began, I think your claim falls under Woody's description of a 'baseless statement' (although, tbf, he hasn't yet found the courage to clarify what he means by this). Perhaps you'd like to make it less so by producing some evidence. Otherwise someone might assume you're not thinking very well. (No
post hoc ergo propter hoc or 'stands to reason' please.)
Something leads me to believe it has about as much truthfulness as this nugget: '
so much lorry pollution in the air it kills it off'.
