The closest thing to a credible voice with a somewhat contrarian view I've seen is John Ioannidis [1]. His comment was a bit provocative, but ultimately the main thing he was asking for was proper studies to have better numbers for the real mortality rate. Which would be a study with a random sample of the population where you test everyone and then follow up for a while to see how they do.
But asking for such a study is far away from the people asking to just let a few % of the population die because "it's for the economy".
