Ethics aside, more fatalities will cause the bigger economical impact as well due to the lower amount of consumers, the lower consumption rate of the survivors (they will lose their close people, relatives, friends), will increase the long-term burden to the public health due to increased depression levels, lower immunity levels, and so on. Moreover, the political damage of the governance system, including healthcare. It's sick that people look just to the first-order effects but completely forget about second-order ones.
