We have to err on the side of saving lives, not speculation. Over 2 billion humans have been vaccinated so far, and rising. What's the worst case scenario here

  Because lockdowns are detrimental to society (mental health, division, etc). Why can't we take a level headed approach. It seems like our approaches don't take into any consideration past experiences with similar viruses, or leverage data. We have a lot more data this time around.

  That by not focusing on vaccinating only the most vulnerable, we are just selecting for strains that the vaccines are not effective against.

    And selection is useless if the “gene pool” is small enough that the selection pressure just eradicates the disease entirely. If we get the R number to something like ⅒ and hold it there for a few months? Disease eradicated, job done, everybody goes home.
