> 'Normal life' includes hundreds of thousands people dying of infectious disease each year that nobody notices. I really think that people notices when a loved one dies, whatever the cause. What makes you think that normal people just shrugs off the death of a loved one? I am old enough to remember how many people used to die in traffic accidents and how much money, effort, and regulations where put in place to lower that numbers. I am happily impressed by how much people, from doctors to retail clerks, are doing their part and how governments have moved the economy to support that in need. Your divisive message is out of place and does not help.

Oh I agree, but hundreds of thousands die from infectious disease every year, and while their family mourns (and ought to of course), life goes on. > Your divisive message is out of place and does not help. I simply said what I thought would happen, not what I think is right. > I am happily impressed by how much people, from doctors to retail clerks, are doing their part and how governments have moved the economy to support that in need. All governments worldwide have actually and intentionally neglected to help people suffering from depression, mental health, and suicidal thoughts, which are almost certainly also going to lead to more deaths quite soon. I give it a few weeks before suicide numbers come out and indicate these lockdowns as a direct cause. Again, I'm indifferent to whether or not these sanctions are warranted, but I'm just pointing out what I think will happen.
