re: Some people don't want to accept the data that shows the Covid impact hasn't been too bad

where, specifically?
Wuhan perhaps?
Review of this outbreak is really interesting.
We criticize the Chinese because they refused to acknowledge this was a serious threat allowing millions to interact and possibly spread the disease. Consequently Wuhan, a city bigger than NYC saw thousands perish
Yet, we now somehow believe America should have never shutdown because of the cost to our economy.
I like the Swedish approach but really that's because in hindsight we have the data to back their play. It was a huge gamble for them.

Strategic shutdown vs blanket policy.

we criticize China for lying about the virus, not their response in Wuhan (unless that response involves lying, which it does)
the problem is your argument presumes China didn't take this threat seriously when they did and tried to cover it up rather than admit their issues and receive a "black eye" of sorts. 95% of worldwide cases could have been stopped had China been honest about this

particular areas should have been shut down. not the entire nation or entire states
