You are correct but if we have to treat thousands of elderly and medically compromised patients then those who, under normal circumstances would be expected to survive may well succumb due to lack of NHS capacity. Reducing the likelihood of anyone getting the virus is the only way we have, at the present time, to limit its effects on the more compromised members of society. This is why it is essential we all take it seriously, as it could be anyone of us or our loved ones who ‘succumb’.
