The idea of slowing the spread and gradually building herd immunity so as not to overwhelm the health care system still makes sense.

The way this idea has been implemented does not make sense.

Closing down the whole economy rather than isolating areas and individuals was not a great idea.
And they keep talking about how bad it is, but the numbers still don't add up. I read just this morning that the number of cases in California has doubled overnight. The number? went from 200 - 410, but don't fear the state is getting ready 10,000 ventilators to be able to combat the spread of the virus. Really? Lets put a number like 10,000 beside a number so low it has no meaning, to get inside peoples heads. It is called phycology and People are falling for it.

I don't want to sound without feelings, but we talk about population explosion on the one hand, and then on the other hand we go to the extreme to save a few thousand lives.
