It's talked about, but ~3k people a day aren't dying of suicide so it's a lesser issue. If we have 2018 levels of suicide this year, suicide death numbers will be approximately 20% of COVID-related death numbers.

My company and many other have had a huge focus on mental health throughout this whole ordeal. I do feel at the county level, resources for mental health should have for all who need it.
Saying we should get rid of lockdown because of a related issue begins the argument of which is the lesser of two evils.

Individual risk assessment. Protect the vulnerable population (elderly, co morbidities, etc). Open up economically while masking/social distancing. If your risk assessment is to stay home, it's your right to choose that. For those who asses they're okay with going out, can do so. Limit indoor capacities to 50% (including employees), while trying to take advantage of outdoor areas to try to get as close as possible to 100% of capacity income. Let the economy start to fix itself. With that, herd immunity will also set in. Both of which are going to take time. The first shut down already caused long term damage, but it can at least start to be relieved. I said in an earlier post (can't remember if it's here or presidential thread), shutting everything down and forcing people to stay home it's only for those who risk assessed that they're okay going out. You don't need a ordinance for people who risk asses to stay home, they'll do it themselves.
My fear living in CA is once we are on the other side of this, we are going to get taxed to death to recoup budget loss. Hopefully the French Laundry dinner Newsom had wasn't written off as a business expense. Sent from my Note 20 Ultra using Tapatalk |

Individual risk assessment would work if individuals were fully aware of the risk.
They are not. They have proven, time and time again, that they will not wear masks and do not fully believe in the veracity of studies and tests. They believe the government is feeding them lies, and that liars are feeding them truth. They believe what they want to believe, and they cannot adequately assess something they don't consider a risk at all. What happens when an underinsured COVID-denier ends up with a million-dollar hospital bill? Who foots the cost of their stupidity? Who pays the salary of someone who decided they're not okay to go out? It's whose right to do what and when? Ignorance cannot be fought with freedom. There's a friggin' bouncer at the door of a popular convenience store on Pala Reservation because too many people refused to wear masks. Other countries are able to control the spread because their populace isn't chock full o' nuts. |

Did you read that article on Sweden I shared or nah? I?m gonna guess nah. Heard immunity only works if you?re willing to sacrifice everyone and anyone. One person takes a risk, we all take the risk. That?s the problem with these half measures. Either whole-ass it or no-ass it, no half-assing will suffice.

Every single thing needs to be laid out by people who are smarter than you or me and there needs to be a contingency for everything. Trump's White House is incapable of building a task force that is appropriately intelligent. |

Not to be a contrarian, but those being led must be willing to put their selfish desires aside for the greater good. Such a thing is a hard ask in the US due to the very nature of our culture.

It should be self-evident that a covering over mouth and nose would be better than nothing. No proof or evidence is needed in common sense situations. You sound like a toddler who doesn?t want to eat their peas.
