Are any of the people proposing months-long lock downs actually going without a paycheck right now? Or does it just so happen to coincidentally be the case that nearly every person in favor of these measures is also not being financially harmed by them?
Who exactly is proposing a months-long lockdown? The most I've seen seriously proposed is 4-7 weeks. Genuine question.

The Imperial College analysis, which seems to be influential in the West (including the US gov), indicates that: * 3 months is necessary for a mitigation that will still swamp hospitals by 3X, * five months is necessary for suppression * Iterating multi-monthers for control.
