How long have they been under strict lockdown? You're comparing rocks with apples.
Using a country that failed so dismally to deal with the virus as an example of how the lockdown should be eased is foolish, Italy offers many good examples of how not to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic.
Temperature screening is a pretty coarse measurement. Only picks up severe cases.

Given their experience I think they're stupid to risk a resurgence. But I can see why they might ease up a bit. People are tired of being locked up and their economy, which wasn't in good shape to begin, needs room to breathe a bit. Unwise but they're screwed either way. For the record, I think we are overly cautious.
Free and dom at the same time.
No you don't. Your masters will decide what to do... You have no say or input. Be happy they're doing this for you.
They died because they didn't get treatment, not because there was no lockdown. TB has a treatment regime and those who pose a threat are usually locked up while they recover. That said, I agree that our (SA's) TB history is a poor one and a blight on our government and healthcare system.63,000 people died of TB in SA in 2018.
So 172 per day, why no lock down?
