But was this worth the death toll? Let's be conservative and say that 1000 additional SD residents died bc of refusal to take Covid seriously. How should we value that? Standard value of a life is ~$10 million 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

So loss of life worth ~ $10 billion — which is 17% of SD's GDP, far bigger than any plausible estimate of growth advantage 6/ https://t.co/19hJu68iw1 — PolitiTweet.org
