No, I think they are expecting people to just get sick and die the way we accept automobile accidents, lax regulation on body-destroying foods, air pollution significant enough to measurably impact cognitive function, etc.
It's not like "fuck it let's just get covid" is the first obviously bad idea we've adopted to reduce our mental burdens.

Or are they expecting the vast majority people to just get sick with flu-like symptoms at the worst, like we do every single year? Covid is never going away, at some point we have to accept that and move on.
