I definitely want to add, I'm not trying to take a dump on anyone wanting to feel a sense of normalcy. The situation sucks especially for anyone who finds their support, jobs, home etc directly affected.
It's just that the position of lockdown not being able to continue much longer because of a desire to go out, reopen workplaces etc quite literally means taking the number of deaths alone and jumping from 40,000 to 700,000. Putting millions in intensive care, over ten million through serious illness. It's not something that can be set aside as people push on as the increasingly catastrophic US figures showcase all tok well.
I think the fact is many restrictions could easily continue and big chunks of the economy are dead - they just haven't accepted it yet
