The more that people are tested and reported, the lower the lethality rate will go. If this does happen, the lockdown narrative will crumble.

I get that people have concerns of Covid. Prioritize vaccinations to those 55 and up, implement OTC testing, and open the country up. Those who pop positive, are sick and/or vulnerable can quarantine while the healthy can earn income again. This should be the standard norm for any disease and for any sickness anyways.

The government can pass Covid legislation that is a fraction of the cost to those who are compromised from Covid, dramatically reducing debt incurred.
