I wonder if you were in the at-risk demographic whether you would be saying the same thing. Don’t you have parents, grandparents etc that you’re worried about?

  Yea: at-risk populations should be protected. Even with a complete lockdown, nursing homes are being decimated. Politicians have no interest in admitting their failure. It's clear that Cuomo is being hailed as a hero, despite thousands of old people being lost due to ineffective measures and ineptness. None of these politicians have an interest in bringing attention to the complete tragedy that happened under their watch re: the most vulnerable.

  The Swedish approach places the onus on the at-risk demographics to isolate themselves. If you are worried about your parents (and I would be), then I'd help them in their self-quarantine.

    My parents are both 75+. They both still work in the service industry. They would not listen to me when I told them to self isolate before our lockdown. Their reasoning was that other people their age were still visiting their business. Edit: are you downvoting my parents decisions? Or my anecdote?
