Dr. Jay Bhattachary from Stanford is advocating end the lockdowns, and just give

the vaccine to only the older population, and those at higher risk, making the argument only for those who are not elderly and without at higher risk.

They believe the lock down is much worse than Covid in this population, and believe herd immunity would be achieved with only vaccinating this older population, letting the younger population live their lives "normally"

A number of scientists pointed out the declaration ignores increasing evidence of younger people suffering long term effects of covid, "long haulers"

It should also be pointed out that his specialty is clinical outcomes as it relates to economics
