Instead of calling it Coronavirus disease 2019/COVID-19, we should call it the Wuhan Bat Lab Flu 2019/WBLF-19. Chinese Communist Party Bat Lab Flu 2019/CCPBLF-19 can also work, too.
I understand someone being worried if they and/or someone they care about is immunocompromised, is elderly, obese, and so on and so forth. But we also have to consider the economic and mental health damages of lockdowns.
When it comes to economic damage, people will lose jobs, lose savings, small businesses will close and small businesses and property will be brought out by corporations and billionaires.
When it comes to mental health, people will become less happy as activities are decreased. No more going to the movie theater. No more attending concerts. No more extracurricular activities which bring people joy in their lives.
Worse, people who are in abusive relationships will be imprisoned with their abusers. This is especially bad for children and teenagers, who have less options due to their economic, legal status and life experience. Also, more dying elderly people and their loved ones will be separated and can not spend their last moments together.
Not to mention how many people will miss dentist's appointments, doctor's appointments, and therapies that all can potentially help extend their life and/or improve their quality of life. So for some people, their health will get worse, and sometimes even die from lack of treatment when they could have lived another decade or two if they simply went to the doctor to detect or treat a medical problem or had therapies that they need to live.
Just watch the linked videos, as they they explain things infinitely better than I can.
