It doesn’t even matter what the death counts were. No lives were saved by flattening the curve (assuming we even managed to do that, which is very questionable). The whole intent was to spread them out over time to avoid overwhelming healthcare. And once that was proven to not be a concern, as per all the unused field hospitals closing down, it was time to resume normal life.
The idea that by hunkering away at home we were somehow saving lives was insane.
