Pretending to know the answer and knowing the answer are differnt things. Countries tried different strategies and got wildly different results which not exactly correlate with the measures taken. Compare e.g. Lithuania and Latvia. There is no point pretending that strict lockdown lasting weeks has no effect on public mental health. You will not get healthier, fitter and less traumatised population that way. And here, despite the healtcare system not being overwhelmed by COVID patients, it was very difficult to get access to a doctor: exactly because of the lockdown measures. I will not a bit be surprised to see that the excess mortality for 2020 will be higher, but higher because of the cardiovacular, cancer, etc. patients, not because of COVID (81 death so far). So yes, checking out whether the cure does more damage is very important.
