How much is known about who the low-risk populations are and what are the long term effects on them? Has there been any research coming out of China or other countries?

There is no immunity being built if we do not mingle, once lockdown is lifted rates will rocket up.
We need drastic measures but targeted and not misplaced. This is like carpet bombing because of lack of a guidance system or a lack of willingness to use one.
“if we stop the quarantine for all low-risk people now, herd immunity would develop more quickly. If we also were to keep the elderly and high-risk people isolated from everyone else during this time, including their own family members (i.e., a partial quarantine), we would save countless lives, while also decreasing the stress on the medical system.”
Here’s my take.
We shut down bars, restaurants, entertainment venues, etc. Tell everyone to “stay in house with family”, and allow only people to go to store/pharmacy. Now traffic to store/pharmacy increases by 300%-500% and everyone breaths the same non-recycled air (and if it is it’s not recycled through anti-viral filters more than likely). People all go to grocery stores, 90% do not wear masks. Everyone breaths the same air and spread the virus in the stores than go back to home to infect the family. Seems like it could make matter worse. Not to mention people are at home, out of work, going broke, glued to their phones/internet, scared and stressed out = weaker immune system allowing the virus to take over easier. Is this planned?
