I agree with all of that, there's no need to claim that I'd prefer people "shut up". Yes, things will keep getting worse, probably for quite a while. Probably a serious percentage of people will die avoidable deaths. But I sincerely doubt society will crumble. It's been through worse. Society didn't crumble in the black plague, when two thirds of the population died a horrible death. It will be a shittier life than we were used to last century, but not the apocalypse, and people will still grow old, and need to retire.
