Be honest with the people
Tell the truth, people will die. It's unavoidable. The only thing we can control is how soon they die.
The virus is here and too widespread to isolate it like other countries that acted early have done. Ease the restrictions and tell it like it is. If we open schools it's to allow people to be able to get back to work. Tell them the risk, it's not that high but it's not zero. If people go back to work, tell them the risk. It's not that high but it's not zero.
People will die as long as the virus is here. We have the capacity to care for them but we won't be able to save everyone. That's what we do for everyone that dies nomatter what the cause.
Why the contribution is important
If we don't tell people the truth then they will jump to their own conclusions. We're all adults. We know that people die every day. Nobody wants it but we live with it because we know it's unavoidable.
Don't pretend that we're trying to stop all deaths unless you're really planning to keep everyone in lockdown until there are no infections.
