What? Why don't we not risk another wave by letting people out and instead just wait for a vaccine before completely resuming normality. Less people die this way.
- zamadatix 7y ago12-18 months of quarantine has both a direct and indirect cost to life as well. For the indirect - shutting everything down for a couple of weeks has already created ENORMOUS financial stress for millions now out of work. Many of these people don't have a month of savings left for bills let alone 18 months (which is beyond the recommended runway to have in savings for those already better off) and society isn't prepared to pickup the cost for them either.
