the "grandmas" really need to consider it's high time they isolate themselves and let the world go on around them. At this point why arent they already doing this? And why arent we forcing them?

Not all of them are bedridden people who don't want to live. My grandma was working at a day care taking cae of kids. And they love to see her and talk to her. And she takes my sister's dogs out for walks multiple times a day. Why should she have to isolate herself on a normal basis and pretend that just how the world should be? Why should they have to cut their life even shorter and isolate themselves from friends and family just because?

And the few young people that do die from it? Well it sucks but considering just them we are back to the "is it really that much worse than other seasonal diseases?" argument. Harder to say it is when the old people are factored out since they should be rightfully isolating themselves

And why should we just not care about young people. Which includes most kids, or people with diseases that may not even be their fault. The reason the death count is low is probably because we're isolating ourselves. Had we not, the death count would probably be much higher. There's a chance all the old people and younger people with certain conditions, and kids, might all be dead. Plus, all the people who started having respiratory problems due the disease. And the hospitals would be so overcrowded that barely anyone would be able to get help. Basically, the reason we have less deaths is because of the isolation. Meaning that it's much worse than a seasonal disease. We were just able to keep the death rate low because of how "early" we caught it...
