You can't separate the two completely, though. It's a balance, not an either-or. The idea that a collapsing economy won't affect lives and have a significant death toll is really short-sighted. People are already dying because of service closures, and it's the tip of the iceberg compared to what the situation will be in six months/a year/beyond if we carry on with this idea that we can just shut down entire countries indefinitely and expect them to continue to function.
