We don't know the full impact the last 20months has had on everyone, but I would argue your statement is not correct.
And can you prove they'd benefit from letting COVID rip through society? Of course you cannot. People are dying waiting to get into A&E now because of the wait to get into hospital with many beds taken up by COVID patients.

Your pretence that we can just act like it's 2019 is a complete red herring. Dare I say simplistic.
