"Since very few people under 25 die of this, that's probably OK. And then we have a workforce."
Wow - absolutely not - the notion of people - anyone - purposely infecting themselves with a deadly disease that actually does kill quite a number of people - is absurd.
The notion that the government may indirectly encourage it is very irresponsible.
This is aside from even the fact that quite a lot of those people will still need hospitalization, and of course, they become carriers and will infect others.
A 'wave of young people getting infected' would cause the hospitals to spike again, get more healthcare workers and 'all the other people' in the hospitals infected as well.
We're going to have to aggressively socially distance and change a lot of our habits for the next 18 months or so as vaccines, cures, therapies etc. are developed - all of these things combine to bring R0R/R1 the numbers down.
