That's a colossal "if" in that last statement. I have yet to hear of anyone starving to death yet, in fact, apparently many are gaining weight in quarantine. Yes, service and entertainment industries have taken a massive hit, which is unfortunate, however those industries, especially the latter, are luxuries. Things we can live without, while life goes on.And all that math is without the added common sense measures we could we doing and will be embracing going forward. Like I said, this requires more than simply riding it out and accepting losses. But blanket shut down of society is not the appropriate response for a sustained period if it leads to different death and suffering.
Now, this isn't going to go on forever, and most of those jobs will return at some point in the future. But to continuously harp on "but the economy!" when people are still dying at distressing rates shows a callousness that I want no part of. The economy can wait. People's lives cannot. I don't know why I have to keep repeating this point, but I will for as long as I have to, until people finally understand.
