There is no need for lockdowns at this point. The vaccinated can go on about their life. Or I guess they can lock themselves down themselves if they are still worried about it.
You don't seem to want to acknowledge the damage lockdowns do and the unintended consequences of them.
Perhaps you should talk to a few immunolgists before you make such statements
You're wrong but you need to learn for yourself why you are wrong.
"We find that shocks to unemployment are followed by statistically significant increases in mortality rates and declines in life expectancy. We use our results to assess the long-run effects of the COVID-19 economic recession on mortality and life expectancy. We estimate the size of the COVID-19-related unemployment to be between 2 and 5 times larger than the typical unemployment shock, depending on race/gender, resulting in a 3.0% increase in mortality rate and a 0.5% drop in life expectancy over the next 15 years for the overall American population. We also predict that the shock will disproportionately affect African-Americans and women, over a short horizon, while white men might suffer large consequences over longer horizons. These figures translate in [to] a staggering 0.89 million additional deaths over the next 15 years."
This is similar to the term "blowback" used by the CIA.
Lockdowns kill people. They are necessary though when there is no other tool to combat a virus. They become more deadly than the virus when people have access to a vaccine.
