Agreed, the virus was certainly a strain on the medical system, and that seemed to be the primary reason why people were dying: the medical system would get too overburdened to actually treat people quickly and effectively, causing the massive back-log of patients to start dying because of treatment that was too little or too late.

That all being said, the first five amendments being suspended by gubernatorial fiat is not a legitimate solution to that.

Nor am I convinced that the disease killed more people than the lockdowns.
