The data is in. Covid is not nearly as problematic as first expected. People under 60 are relatively safe from lasting impacts, unless an underlying condition exists. Even with underlying conditions, the long term recovery rate for the under 60 crowd is in the +95% range with under 50 being closer to 99.5%.
Open the schools. Open the economy. Deal with the issues in long term care facilities where significant numbers of people died.
