Your regular reminder that "Focused Protection" from the Great Barrington Declaration is, and always was, absolute nonsensehttps://twitter.com/NDLoubere/status/1426672027239337989 …

"The elderly can all get their own hotel rooms while the pandemic sweeps through" makes sense if you're talking about a 2-week peak of infections, perhaps, but not when we're 18 months in and some places are on to their 3rd, 4th, and 5th waves
Also, a fascinating fact is that most advanced economies DID protect their elderly population to an enormous extent, at least post April-2020. In most richer locations with serological data, people over-70 have MUCH lower infection rates than under-70
Note - this is important because it happened BEFORE the GBD proposed it, which goes to show that even with "focused protection" places can have enormous death tolls from COVID-19
Elderly don't matter to them. Sam Brokken, the Belgian Great Barrington pusher, wrote an article about "risk-benefit" which is based on the core idea of counting any life over 64 as having 0 value. Not just a lower value, but 0.https://psyarxiv.com/xczb3/
