With 0.1% of All Americans dying from this and 99.9% not over a now two month infection period opportunity we find in fact that the needs of the “none ” are outweighing the needs of the All.
Keep in mind 50,000 died in just 8 weeks. On a yearly basis that's 300,000. However abandoning the stay at home policy and opening up the country will likely send those rates a lot higher.
You're looking at it like the bean counters looked at the war in vietnam. They didn't figure on the escalation skewing the average. The better figure would be to take the current daily death toll, and multiply it by the number of days left in the year. We're flattening the curve, but are holding at around 2,000 deaths per day

240 days X 2,000 per day is another 480,000 added to the current 50,000. Half a million is far beyond the current estimates because they figure that with luck the UV from the summer sun (northern hemisphere) may mitigate the spread, since it would kill the virus with sunlight.
This could explain the seasonal nature of the flu, that as the hours of daylight decrease, along with the intensity of sunlight, that viruses live outside much longer.
