To reach 50-70% it’s almost impossible for it not to reach high risk groups at some stage - so no reason for anyone, whatever their age, who believes in this policy to not do their bit. Even those at risk still stand a better chance than a coin toss. Rather die free than live a prisoner, as they say.
No, the point is that the healthy population is pretty well immune to this virus and so it is better that they build up an immunity than having vulnerable people put in that position.

Nobody is advocating deliberate infection. Once again you are twisting what people say out of all recognition. You’re very good at that,I will admit.
