There is a lot that remains unknown about the COVID-19 disease. Is it biphasic? Does it leave lung scarring or other chronic ailments? I think you are being very presumptuous as to the type of virus SARS-CoV-2 and disease COVID-19 are. Could you imagine how naive you would sound giving this advice during other unknown viral pandemics? For example the 80s HIV and AIDS crisis. Obviously COVID-19 is nowhere as fatal, but to assume there are zero long term repercussions is a little early as of now. Perhaps slowing down and waiting for more answers as research ramps up is not the worst short term trade off.
