Without a thorough analysis of the long term economic costs, mental health costs, physical health costs, spousal abuses, suicides, drug/alcohol abuse etc... that comes with extreme lockdowns you can't even be sure if you are doing the right thing.
I'm starting to think the guys that said protect the weak and vulnerable and do mask and limited social distancing had it right. The extreme measures don't stop it and the long term costs of a hard lockdown are huge.

This isn’t accurate. Cases are spiking everywhere because people aren’t wearing masks, aren’t social distancing and carrying on like everything is okay.
Parties, get together, campaign rallies, protests, etc are all things that other countries who have been very successful at containing the virus are not doing.
