Are the chances of these people dying from COVID greater than other risks we take every single day, yet don't shut down society and curtail freedoms over?
Yes, for example covid deaths in Scotland are 1/3 of all deaths, deaths in UK:
"The Office for National Statistics said that in the week to 3 April, 16,387 people died in England and Wales, an increase of 5,246 deaths compared with the previous week and 6,082 more than the five-year average."
And that's WITH a lock down, way before the massive peak that could have happened.
It's like you're stuck in the wishful thinking stage the rest of us were in two months ago.
That is really the only question that matters.
