> so we sacrifice a few percent of population for the future of the others No, you sacrifice an uncertain percentage of the population (but probably larger than you suggest because healthcare systems would be quickly overwhelmed by a massive spike in cases) to both death and long-term sickness and disability, but for what? Lockdown causes people to lose their jobs, children to miss school, and others to suffer problems with mental health (although to use your phrasing, this would just be "a few percent" of the population) but it saves people's lives and health. I'm also really disappointed that people don't get the idea that people dying and having long-term health issues doesn't screw the economy too.
