love how people casually say "oops" and "we'll adjust"

those "oops" are painful suffering deaths that could have been avoided

everything has been reduced to numbers we mindlessly argue when we are talking about deaths that could have been avoided

even people who recover, this does long term lung and maybe heart damage

all could have been avoided with a true two week lockdown to let the virus die off, but nope, trade two weeks for months more of "resurgence and adjust measures"

this is also why I get upset at "just let everyone get infected for herd immunity" arguments - this isn't a cold, it does -damage-
