Here is something to think about.
If a massive outbreak of uncontrolled Covid 19 had occured without any mitigation, the resulting large number of deaths, hospitalization and economic chaos, could have been just as bad or worse than what we have now.
Fear of getting sick and spreading the virus and actually getting sick would keep many people at home anyway and would have shut down large parts of the economy.
Trying to reduce the negative impacts is the best option. But there is no way to escape lots of negative impacts either way.
