Your wrong opinion is 100% at odds with the actual public health and epidemiological evidence, as well as the experiences of countries like Japan, South Korea, Norway, and New Zealand, which have been able to virtually eliminate the virus through excellent public health practices.
Universal masking and avoidance of the most crowded conditions alone lower the R0 of the virus so low that it spreads at a snails pace, slowly festering until a vaccine comes.
If the 60's were Woodstock and civil rights, the 70's were disco and oil embargos, and the 80's were greed is good, the 2010's are going to be every peasant with an internet connection thinking their half-baked opinion outweighs experts who study this their entire lives and utilize facts and evidence.

Every generation of scientists think they know everything.
And every generation something goes wrong. Trust the doctors blindly! Once they get a PHD they are now infallible. Cant be wrong, tired, biased, racist, greedy, horny, or any other emotion. They are simply arbiters of truth and not to be questioned!
Lets examine some stunning success stories.
DDT deemed perfectly safe.
Heroin and cocaine in cough syrup.
Lead paint
Asbestos for construction.
Meth sold OTC in the 90s that was causing heart failure.
Each time they thought they had all the science and learned enough from previous mistakes. Things like that are WHY we slow things down and test properly. Rushing things out of fear is madness. Hubris will be the death of you.
