Perhaps locking up young people at home due to a disease with a 0.05% death rate for people below 60 was not a great idea after all.

That death rate would be significantly higher if hospitals didn't have the capacity to treat patients. Mortality rates for non COVID19 related cases would also go way up.

It maybe true, anyway, those young people, full of energy and party-lover is virus's best carrier though, locking in help prevents the spread to others whose vulnerable.
Ultimately, no one knows what the best strategy is, maybe the 'Swedish approach' maybe right, or not...,time will tell.
