You are commenting on a thread that is literally about an entire country's healthcare system collapsing because of this virus. People in their 30s and 40s who would otherwise have survived with appropriate medical care, are dying because they can't get hospital beds.

The raw facts are that lockdowns and other COVID restrictions saved millions of lives. I'm open to arguments about other balancing factors but they must come from an underlying view that some restrictions on personal liberty are completely legitimate in emergencies. Skeptics like the signatories of the "Great Barrington Declaration" should learn from India, take the L and have some more humility next time.
