This is a process that involved repeated plagues wiping out substantial portions of the human population. Bubonic plague ravaged Europe and Asian over and over again. Smallpox was a scourge upon the world. Leprosy, tuberculosis, Spanish flu, measles. The list goes on and on. People developed some natural immunity to these diseases after generations of people suffering and dying. Those people were ostracized from their societies too. Red marks painted on doors. Colonies of the sick which can only be described as concentration camps in todays definitions. Developing resistance to pathogens through widespread exposure isn't a switch that can simply be flicked on, it's a process that takes a very, very long time and even then isn't a magic bullet. People still die from the black plague today. So this begs the question, do you think it's okay to sacrifice a substantial portion of our population who will die in awful pain and discomfit when you could do something to prevent that, because you prefer the natural solution?
Well thats a non-question because the fact is, like you say, people die anyway of illness/disease. We cannot stop death no matter how much we try. What we are doing now isnt stopping death at all. Because like you say, people still die. People are still dying of disease right now and that is a fact of life.
Even with the best healthcare and the best health policies we cannot save everyone and certain things remain untreatable and/or a whole array of issues get in the way ie is the patient too far away from a hospital, in certain countries do they for example have insurance, do they want to go to hospital, what is their cultural beliefs on seeking help (many never think of seeing a doctor for ailments), what can the health system do for them, what medicine is available and IS IT available, what stage are they at in terms of their illness, what stage is the disease circulating around society and most importantly can it be stopped (we have never been able to stop the flu coming back every year and while we know lots about the bubonic plague it still crops up in places, how do you predict where it will crop up and better still, can you? You cant have an eye on every inch of land on the planet at all times).
And yes, the risk of living life is worth carrying on living. People get sick and die all the time but we dont stop others living their life. In regards to COVID-19, it is at worst a moderate-severe flu. The risk to the rest of the population is just the same as seasonal flu. Politics and their associated narrative would have you believe otherwise but that is a smokescreen. Moreover, it is a lie.
What do we have in its place? A far worse world for everybody to live than we had before all this happened and now it starts to become apparent things werent done properly, people messed up, the stats were off, certain medications worked when they said they didnt, people were killed because of the lockdown measures and not the virus and those that were not killed/killed themselves lost so many things in their life, mental illness at an all-time high, suicide through the roof, the economy tanking while the rich got richer and obviously, the poor got poorer, educations ruined and childhoods traumatized, people at each others throats and more divides in society than ever before (despite the deliberate manipulation to push you into thinking we are in this together, when we clearly are not).
And for what? For the bubonic plague? For a killer disease? Hardly. We all know that. Some are slowly starting to see it after doing really well and persevering and doing as they are told while others knew a long time ago.
Things have changed forever. And that has NOTHING to do with health but everything to do with the gradual shift towards more and more control, power and influence into the hands who are responsible for this, while of course we get less but then continue going for the juglar with one another believing doing so makes progress, while it doesnt and the show moves on.
If this was to do with health then it would be business as usual. All you need is go back to pre-2020 to see what that was like. And of course during this period and any other we had disease, illness, death. We dealt with this proprionately and everybody went on with their life. There wasnt a topic on a popular drugs forum with over 4,000 replies about the matter and thats because this problem didnt exist then. And it didnt exist because unfortunately, it hadnt been manufactured yet.
