There is no reason why an all or none approach is necessary here, is there?
By my count, 10,120/15,740 of deaths have been folks over 70. If you kept people over 70 locked down (including their caretakers), you could significantly reduce the number of deaths while increasing the percentage that have had it.
In fact, only 9% of New York's population is over 70. So theoretically (though clearly not practically), you could get over the percentage required for herd immunity while reducing the deaths by 66%
