People who brought up these worries about the indirect impacts of COVID lockdowns were shouted down as heretics. Now if you don't support full lockdowns and shelter-in-place, you're supporting genocide against the immunocompromised, minorities, etc. (according to Twitter, company Slack, etc.).
TFA has a great line about many rites of passage being effectively stolen from a generation. That's something they'll never get back, and the fallout is something we'll be observing for decades to come.
