My first inclination is to seriously doubt those numbers because damn near nothing in this country is that one sided. I'd have to ask you to show your work/sources before even considering it to argue against.
Secondly, every decision we make is a selfish decision. Whether its to stay on lockdown to protect the elderly in your family because you're afforded the luxury of that being your primary concern, or wanting to open up because figuring out how to feed your family to the point of relying on Food banks and churches (essentially, allowing your fear to force a family into poverty and homelessness btw) to eat is too stressful and uncertain.
You have your reasons. That guy has his reasons. Your reasons aren't more concerning to him than his own and vice versa.
Blah sorry. The "well i need to protect my elderly" arguments drive me nuts.
EVERYONE has something/someone they are looking to protect.
