The other side of the argument is also just an opinion. What’s your point?

The way I read it is that we have no reason to think the economic drop would be less severe if we didn’t have a shutdown. This is because people dying could hurt the economy just as much, if not more.

It is assuming facts not in evidence to suggest the economy would be better off with more deaths but less of a lockdown.
