Dr. David Nabarro of the World Health Organization reiterated that the agency does not advocate for lockdowns as the primary means of virus control due to the resulting global increase in poverty and malnutrition. Despite this, California Governor Gavin Newsom has maintained some of the strictest stay-at-home orders in the United States. Critics point out the economic devastation caused by these policies, particularly for low-income families.

Dr. David Nabarro of the World Health Organization has publicly appealed to world leaders to stop using lockdowns as their primary method of virus control. Nabarro warns that lockdowns are causing a doubling of world poverty and child malnutrition by destroying the economies of poorer nations. The WHO now suggests lockdowns should only be used as a temporary measure to reorganize health resources.
