      It advocates MAXIMIZING infection among the allegedly low-risk. https://www.aier.org/article/lockdowns-the-great-debate/ …. They should ask for their money back from Dr. Bhattacharya who argued today that it recommends trying to slow the spread. It advocates trying to speed it, as is clear from GBD's text.

          This is just simply saying one thing when trying to influence policy and the opposite when trying to deflect criticism from scientists.

          This was my first meeting with Jay Bhattacharya. @SunetraGupta and @MartinKulldorff are friends and self-described left. Had they asked I would've advised that when a climate-change-denying right-wing thinktank offers a free trip to their estate, they might be suspicious.

          I disagree with the GBD, but I think you misread that admittedly poorly worded sentence.

          It's saying that they want to maximize the number of vulnerable people who haven't yet been infected once herd immunity arrives and minimize the number of vulnerable who do get infected during the process of achieving herd immunity. Terribly-worded though...

          what every libertarian argues is that confinements are a threat to individual liberties

          indeed. A large, difficult to identify and even harder to protect subset.
