Harvard, Oxford, Stanford doctors among leaders of global anti-lockdown movement
In business, science, philosophy - the first objective is to define your goals. I find these kinds of papers and the general discussion surrounding lock-downs seem to miss this first step.If the goal is to preserve the maximum number of human lives, lock-downs are probably reasonable (particularly since lives saved keeping the highways closed alone meets or exceeds lives saved from COVID) - this logic also would have probably kept it out of WW2, kept us from sending humans to the moon, etc.If the goal is prevent the maximum damage to the economy possible, then lock-downs should probably be extremely brief and extremely intense.If the goal is maximum human freedom, again, the choices are obvious.Any discussion that doesn't first define the goals is useless with this topic.
