That we live in a stressful time, which we are being reminded of constantly, and lockdown (With its restricted social interaction) is hard on mental health. I don't think anyone disagrees that lockdown is hard on people. The cost of lockdown is worth it, but lets not pretend that its free. |

Sweden, without COVID lockdowns, is on track for fewer deaths in 2020 than 2018.
The country also has a lower COVID deathtoll per capita than Belgium, Italy, USA.
Lockdown is not a solution. Dealing with air pollution (ending the burning of coal and oil) and obesity (banning and taxing added sugar) would yield significantly greater benefits and require much less cost and effort.
