Surely it should be the people that actually matter, right? The 25 - 60 age group of healthy people with jobs and families? The people we need for civilization to continue going forward. Even one of those people matter much more than 1,000 nursing home residents on the verge of death anyway, COVID or not.

We didn't really just waste a year of our lives and make thousands of people lose their jobs to keep a few 300 year old senile grandmas alive for a few months longer, right? A species that stupid wouldn't get where we are today, right?

We didn't really all just change our lives (and the lives of people not even born yet) potentially for a very long time with the economic effects of the lockdowns, for a few thousand boomers?
