Try selling that to the families and loved ones of the more than 203,000 dead US citizens, or the 989,000 worldwide deaths, sofar.
People die every day and have since the first human walked the earth. Lots of things have been attemped to slow or stop the virus. Many are worse ...on the whole... than the virus. So you make your choice. People are still going to die from this virus unless we find a cure or a vaccine, and again thats just the facts of life.
It is also possible not to make the situation worse, and to follow the guidelines so that (large parts of) the economy can be reopened while minimizing the risk for oneself and others.
Thats not working aout all that well now is it? Your country is seeing a return and you have a compliant pouplation and pertty strict guidelines. Sweden on the other had is jsut going wiht the flow and taking what comes. So whats the proper course?
Look I have no problem with tying to stay safe. My entire household is in the compromised portion of the population. We take all the precautions we can. But we also are going to continue to live our lives and at least I cohoose not to live in fear. I'm going to continue to work and play as safely as I can and I would prefer that tothers do the same. However I'm not so blind to tink that everyone thinks or lives the same way. This is personal choice, like it or not.
I have, and I do not choose the self-centered/egotistical route that you seem to propagate.
Good for you. So have I. As I said at the onset you have to choose. But people are going to be people and like it or not, even with a compliant population, some folks will stilldecide whats best for them. Its human nature and its going to happen. You better get used to it. I suspect that the portion of the worlds population that says "screw it " will only grow as govenments try and limit human activity.
And of course thats my point. We as individuals have to choose. Stay locked down or go ahead and live. Not a thing wrong with guidelines and precautions, use them as you choose.
