Hmm …

 Take the Shutdown Skeptics Seriously - The Atlantic.

The general point is that minimizing the number of COVID-19 deaths today or a month from now or six months from now may or may notminimize the human costs of the pandemic when the full spectrum of human consequences is considered. The last global depression created conditions for a catastrophic world war that killed roughly 75 to 80 million people. Is that a possibility? The downside risks and costs of every approach are real, frightening, and depressing, no matter how little one thinks of reopening now.
