Your problem is you value quantity of life over quality. If a 40 year old business owner loses his company and the ability to feed his family, gets depressed, starts drinking, gets violent with his family, etc., you'll take that over an 87 year old with COPD and diabetes dying 3 months early. It's bananas.
It shouldn't even have to come to this. One side is asking that people worry about/take responsibility for their own lives, while the other is demanding that everyone adjust their existence to suit the needs of the few. At some point, people terrified of contracting COVID-19 either need to assume the minimal risk involved with continued participation in society or go to extreme lengths that inconvenience only themselves as opposed to forcing everyone to bear their burden.
