I love how you people pretend that the covid response isn't killing people. 10s-100's of thousands of people are going to die from missed cancer screenings and needed surgeries. Not to mention the suicides, ids etc. This is just like the war on terror, waste trillions and ruin millions of lives by overeacting

I don't know if it is genuinely killing people, but I definitely think the impacts of overreaction are going to last decades. And I'm relatively pro-vax.

Now, whether or not we could have feasibly done it considerably better is a different debate. Some overreaction is probably the norm and I don't think comparing the reality to the ideal is useful. But especially this year onward, I think it becomes more credible to lay blame for negative consequences.
