It's not disappointing to see humans caring for others. There's a difference between "panicking over the disease" and wanting our elder people (for which the IFR is way over 0.35%) to be safe.
Notwithstanding the fact that this 0.35% cannot possibly be achieved if the health system collapses.

If "we" wanted our elder people to be safe we would take steps to actively protect them. So far that isn't happening, which is very disappointing. Look how New York governor Cuomo sent COVID-19 patients to nursing homes even though he knew it was risky. That caused the worst cluster of deaths in the US so far.
