Measles has a death rate of 1 in 1000 children. That's massively lower than COVID, which is some unknown amount higher than 2 in 1000 of the entire population.

I didn't say we shut down for 700 deaths. But that number is enough to justify minor interventions, like masking until a vaccine is available for every one, and then vaccinating broadly.

Are minor interventions like described in your comment justifiable for 70 deaths? Or 7 deaths?
