There's also the issue of "long covid" - people who before they caught it were perfectly healthy, but months later are still suffering from symptoms such as fatigue or breathlessness. I haven't seen any good data on how many people this affects, although it's estimated to be around 2% of those infected [0]. The important thing is these cases are often reported (by media) in young people, not just old people. What affect would it have on the economy if 2% of the working population suddenly couldn't work and needed life long welfare and medical support?
