Or it’s somebody capable of critical thinking beyond headlines ... at the


0.5-1% case fatality rate, we are probably already past the point of no return on the cure being worse than the disease in terms of human suffering*. Limiting the time frame you’re willing to consider the suffering to 4 months is either intentionally obtuse - to make the lockdown seem more reasonable - or simple minded.

* I think this is a point worth debating in an open and honest way. But to suggest that there are not two sides to the lockdown debate - and anyone who disagrees with you is stupid - is pretty ironic.
