Does "Protecting the Vulnerable" mean everyone with Co-Morbidities? So if you have Type 2 Diabetes or a Heart Condition you should be locked in your home? Have the people behind the Barrington Declaration done the calculations on how much Vulnerable people contribute to the economy.

The approach to protect those who are truly vulnerable makes more sense. For evidence look at the attitude toward shutdowns coming out now. Statements by WHO, which I posted about.
By now, many months into this we should have pretty good data to support who the vulnerable are, and who they are not.

Another interesting comparator is Germany. Complete opposite side of the spectrum. The Germans were probably the most strict in the implementation of a forced quarantine on their people.
Germany is now seeing the same large upswing in infections as most other first-world countries. They show 6000 cases today. Deaths are on the rise too, similar to other nations. You can draw conclusions from that about the return value of these expensive and inadequate safety practices.

Most places in the developed world are seeing a Second Wave. It was predictable.
Note the US never finished their first wave.
