Obviously, on the one hand we have risks posed by the virus. That itself is complicated because of everything we don't know. Will we be able to create a vaccine? Does the lockdown actually save lives or just delay deaths until the lockdown is lifted? Exactly how deadly is the virus? How much of the population has already had the virus? If we stop the lockdown, will healthcare be overwhelmed? On the other hand, we have the cessation of useful work. That's going to have consequences. There are reports of crops going to waste because they can't be harvested. The lost productivity will lower everyone's standard of living, which will translate into additional deaths. The isolation imposed during the lockdown will also damage people's mental health. So, yes, I think there is a complex trade-off and I think its immature and naive to think otherwise.
