Respectfully I still think there is something to this 'herd immunity' thing. Alot of top epidemiologists (non-govt) have suggested this and by not allowing the 98% of the healthy to develop immunity we are actually promoting the second and possibly third waves. I know RC chimed in on this yesterday which was a good informative post but I did some reading on herd immunity last night and alot of it makes sense. But we aren't being allowed to do it. They are saying that if herd immunity was allowed to peak/drop we could have been through this is in 4 weeks regardless of higher percentages on death rates.

Sweden, which is an international outlier in resisting a lockdown, has suffered a much higher death toll than its Nordic neighbours, even adjusting for its population being roughly double that of Norway, Denmark or Finland. As of Wednesday, Sweden had 1,203 deaths due to coronavirus, against 143 for Norway, 309 for Denmark and 72 for Finland.
