The goal of our society is to allow people to live their lives in freedom - as they wish. Constraining society to pander to those who are essentially scared of their own shadow and are clearly suffering from irrational anxiety and borderline paranoia is not acceptable. It is way past time that those who are scared started to pay the full cost - which means they get to stay out of the way while everybody else gets on with their lives. They cannot be permitted to socialise that cost onto everybody else. Once we have a vaccine, and in sensible countries public healthcare free at the point of delivery, that is as much insurance as society can offer. If you're still scared after that then, as the young tend to say these days, that is a 'you' problem.
