1. Do you have an opinion regarding whether this virus warrants wrecking the economy, businesses, careers, and savings and deferring other medical care, and if so, what is that opinion?
I don't.
It has not affected me personally yet. That being said, history will either describe this as an over-reaction or an under-reaction.
I can't speak for those who have lost income or jobs, but I know that in lots of places people are dying because of the spike. This virus spreads many times faster than the flu, so even if only 4-6 times as deadly, it can exhaust medical resources rapidly. It already has in NOLA.
The sanctions we are currently undergoing are saving lives, for whatever its worth.
