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

Originally, the data called for 2.2 million Americans to die if nothing was done, then it was pushed down to 240,000 with mitigation. Now the models are saying between 60,000-70,000 Americans will die of COVID-19 this year - which is right in line with a bad influenza outbreak.
If you're going to use the top range for your first 2 numbers, you probably shouldn't use the average/median range for your last one. Makes you look disingenuous.

So since the argument has shifted from “overwhelming hospitals” to “saving lives”, I’m not sure how one can logically not argue we lock down forever

Do you not agree that 60,000-70,000 is in line with a bad influenza outbreak?
