Wrong? Did you not see the graph where the vast majority of hospitalization and deaths are elders?

Picking up dead? We are going to do that regardless. Sorry, but we are going to pick up dead people no matter what the case is .  We can't stop working or else there will be no food, medecine supplies, ect which affects 100% Sorry, we have to play the percentage and not on feelings or fear.

In most cases food, medicine, go under "essentials".
Those places will still keep those running.

100% shutdown, isnt actually 100%.

Theres exceptions for stuff deemed essentials.
(atleast its that way here, but I assume its like that everywhere else too)


Yes the vast majority of hospitalizations and deaths are the elderly.
And as time goes on, more and more of the population will have gotten it and become immune, and eventually it ll be "safe" again for those groups.

However even if you dis-reguard the health of the elderly, and say "fack it" lets just let it spread, and the elderly can just stay at home.

The issue is still the same.  <-------------- key point please note.

The hospitals cannot keep up, with the amount in need of care.
Even if you keep the sick and elderly under lock & key, and somehow manage to really effectively stop spread to those groups.

The 30-60 year olds, will still be enough to overwhelm the health care systems.

Thats why they are shutting things down, they want to curve how many at treated at hospitals at once.
So it happends over a periode of time, instead of all at once.


Again, you can be 30, healthy and still be unlucky enough to need hospitalisation or a ventilator.
Even though the chances are alot smaller than if your older, its still there.
And its enough to break the health care systems around the world.
