Your point that Covid (and our responses to it) have both plus and minuses is valid. But then you undermine it with this:
> If people stay home there are no accidents, no murders, no party drugs etc.
There are still accidents, murders, etc. In some places they have even increased. And other causes of death like suicide and heart disease are up because people are staying home.
Then you end by contradicting your own good point (i.e. impacts are complex) with "it's bad for everyone" which is obviously untrue.

- biolurker1 6y agoMy position is crystal clear. You can't compare people at home with people living normal life and deduct anything about the covid mortality effect. You can nitpick all you want.
