I do understand your sentiment on some aspects of this . For elderly thou , that is the one age group where this is actually very dangerous ...
Now ..if we reach next winter , and the vaccine is say 50 % effective, the IFR is down even a tad more ..and this becomes a very annual thing w lockdowns and restrictions ..I will very much go on living my life ..as I did before, I just will continue to be very mindful of elderly . I already believe Covid is being ..leveraged.
My posts about the positive case growth and numbers And trends in USA , Europe and coming hospitalizations and what I see coming down the pike the last two days is not from the angle of I support all the policies that have just decimated some industries for good at a time when Congress lack of continued action Which has really led to tremendous increase in financial inequality if you are in those industries .
You can’t do lockdowns without continued full financial support of workers in industries that are decimated and forced into closure , failure . You need to buy these people time to retrain their job skills.
Bigger picture there are some larger changes afoot, We are certainly entering the Technotronic era as Zigbinew Bryzenski excitedly describes in the out of print ..” Between two ages” Covid is a opportunity and no good opportunity goes to waste unless people are very naive .
