In high density areas or with a substantial older population, yes. Sweden didn't shut down and their health system isn't at the point of any of those locations. [They have a lot of people dying though - so that's not to say not shutting down is a good idea]. It's also pretty unclear from Seattle's trajectory pre-lockdown it was every going to be overwhelmed if it didn't shut down.
