So not equal then?

The longer version of the fourth point in the Sun is alarming:

At the moment the Government is sacrificing everything in order to extend lives at all costs.

And in the case of Covid you are typically talking about lives which have already been long.

At best it's implying euthanasia and at worst is taking a let-the-elderly-die attitude.
