It's not as simple. GDP per capita is strongly correlated with life expectancy. In other words, people die sooner with worse economy.
- chii 7y agoor die _even sooner_ with this herd immunity strat. On an individual level, i would not want this, even if it's "better" for the UK in the long run. As an individual, it's unacceptable for me to take this sort of risk, and i would not agree to it if i had a choice.
