I think we over-reacted with the lockdowns and social distancing. I just think people like OP who imply that the coronavirus is not more deadly than the flu need to be called out. This kind of misinformation is the reason why lockdown skepticism isn't taken seriously by the general public. When over 180,000 Americans are dead from COVID-19 while 2018 flu/pneumonia killed only 61,000 people max without lockdowns or social distancing, you can't bold-face claim that the coronavirus isn't more harmful than the flu.
I understand why you don't want lockdowns. I don't want them either. Unless it's like a Northern Italy situation where you literally run out of hospital beds. But lying to people undermines one's position.
