Yeah?
And?
You don't think that would be worse?
Short term, yes it would be devastating. Long term? No, it wouldn't be worse. The sooner the virus burns itself out, the sooner you can start to rebuild. The COVID damage is likely to be the new normal.
Think of it as the difference between having your little finger chopped off by a meat cleaver, vs having it removed one millimeter at a time in a meat grinder.
