The COVID-19 pandemic is and always has been a very complex crisis. Most significantly, it is simultaneously a public health crisis and an economic crisis. Partisans who suggest that that one should be prioritized to the exclusion of the other are being disingenuous and oversimplifying a situation to which there is no simple answer. While the metrics of the public health component of the pandemic are fairly easy to grasp on a superficial level–the number of deaths, positive tests, hospitalizations, etc.–the economic devastation caused is more difficult to wrap your head around. It's easy to look at raw data in a vacuum but metrics like the unemployment rate and gross domestic product are only the tip of the iceberg.
