Rights are worth many deaths. It has always been. Stopping Hitler was worth millions of deaths, in exchange we still have rights.
Before covid, family visited elderly in nursing homes, knowing full well there is a small chance they could pass the flu on to them and kill them.
I know my grandfather appreciated my visits, even though he knew there was a small risk of contracting something like the flu.
A life where you control for every possible risk is not one worth living.
We accept risk for rights and convenience all the time. E.g. operating vehicles.
