“normal” people like doctors and nurses who are dying from the disease?
That’s among the many problems with this attitude. At what point do we stop treating healthcare workers as cannon fodder?
Besides which, that ignores the fact that strokes from the disease are killing people of all ages. And that we don’t know the long-term impact on the health of victims yet.

If you look carefully at the whole numbers the average COVID-19 victim is over 80 and has at least one major chronic health problem already. It makes sense to focus mitigation efforts on this group.
