One of the debating tricks people who oppose strong public health action against the virus use is to say 'more people are being harmed by the restrictions than by the virus'. That's like saying 'we can't build new schools because our roads have potholes that haven't been fixed'. Just do both, fight the virus and deal with people impacted by restrictions. We're not doing both because governments have no pandemic plan, just economic plans. They want you to think we have to choose between our health and the economy. How do we not just laugh at that ridiculous choice?
