Nah... to be honest, I'd much rather be dead from disease and know the world is a better place for my grandkids. I know many that think the same. My heart breaks when I look at the little ones ages 2, 5, and 8...wondering what they will grow up into. Then, to add the riots... unreal. The idiots wouldn't have to funds to loot, arson and attack if it weren't for the extra funds from stimulus care act. I'm delighted they can't come to agreement on giving out more. That might force everything open.
I'm 68 and most my age feel the same. We stay sheltered in place, but, would much prefer the economy be open and functioning for the future of our children. Sure, I'd love to live longer, but, the current method is madness.

Well, our approach has been similar to Sweden's without intending it to be. You could hardly say the lockdown was total in the initial days, followed by re-openings by States earlier than advised (See FL & AZ), and then the "I refuse to wear a mask because it intrudes on my freedom" crowd.
Why not advocate for the opposite and give New Zealand as an example? With half of Sweden's population but only 22 deaths.
If, Brilacidin or a vaccine, becomes available tomorrow, which country do you think would have prevented needless deaths?
This debate is akin to those advocating for a war...cheer for one as long as I and my loved one don't have to go fight it. I will just sit on my couch and watch how it goes on my tv.
