Social isolation will save many many more people from COVID-related deaths than the ensuing economic dislocation will cause. We economists actually measure stuff like this, and it’s not even in the neighborhood of being close. https://twitter.com/owillis/status/1242462385341960194 …

It's a strange day when the dismal science cheers us up.
Do these people not realize that a recession, in itself, does not in any way effect on the ability to produce food, fuel, or medicine? Any excess mortality from poverty is going to be due to deliberate witholding.
All they care about is making sure Trump’s re-election chances are not hurt. Period
Not doubting this, but am curious of the research on economic links to background mortality rates. Was looking the other day and didn't find quite what I was looking for.
Like how .any people did the great depression kill? Starvation, suicide, etc..
I am excited to hear it. Could you please show your work? It's important right now.
And note that it needs to be over a time horizon. Like what if we're doing this for six months? What about eighteen?
