The point is that the folks who say keep the economy locked down until there are is a treatment, or a vaccine, or there are zero new cases - or whatever their ever-moving goalpost is today - do not have the moral high ground in claiming they are the ones who want to save lives. No, their desire would kill WAY more people than smartly reopening the economy would kill.

Moving the goal post?
Me?
You’ve gone from the hysterics about the economy to this made up farce now.

1.4 million people predicted to die from tuberculosis due to economic lockdowns.
“Global lockdown measures as a result of the coronavirus pandemic could lead to millions of people contracting tuberculosis (TB) over the coming years, according to a new study.
As many as 6.3 million people are expected to develop TB as cases go undiagnosed and untreated between now and 2025, a study
published by Stop TB Partnership on Wednesday showed, with 1.4 million people predicted to die during this time.“

If it's not one thing it's another. Nature always has a way of weeding a certain number of people out of the mix, we can cure people of one disease and then another will pop up to replace it. That's the way it is, and that is the way it will always be.

There never has been an effective vaccine for a RNA virus. Why you think this one will be different?
