thanks to @Aryeh___ for reminding me of this, i think the way he put it was something like "you are living in a situation that if it were forced upon you would violate the geneva conventions"

@miftah___ra These estimates say in Jakarta there are from 23% to 59% of the deaths expected when herd immunity is reached.
One could use those to estimate the costs of lockdowns.

@amir I tried to Fermi estimate around that here https://twitter.com/ecree429/status/1348608399999709185
Conclusion I came to was that lockdowns are a terrible idea. Granted, I already thought that before doing the calculation, but still...
wonder how much total loss of well-being from lockdowns would weigh against number of deaths. what's the utilitarian break even point here
wonder where we're at in terms of that
