Yes, and the questions now are... how many will die from the global depression the world now has? And how deadly will second and possibly third waves be due to less herd immunity? I’m not saying we should have let the virus spread, but it seems we are overcooking the goose, possibly for political reasons, and now have much more public debt AND a global depression. Thank you China!
