You obviously know the answer.

Doing so won’t overwhelm the hospitals

We want to slow the spread to those who would require hospitalization

that's assuming they can't get it again. Some reports say it's possible

I love your magical thinking, "The more who get it now without overwhelming

His solution would probably work for the U.S. Italy is a different monster

You said it: "young people can then spread COVID to others"

Hasn't it been said enough that COVID is particularly severe

For the young I’m not sure it has been much worse

Less of a risk for the young but still more than regular flu.

JmThms

We know the "flu" kills more than a few young adults each flu season

I wonder if some degree of cross-pollenization might not be beneficial in the long run.

Go get it and then spread it to your parents

Uhh... your grand parents should be self isolating.

I guess one flaw in this is that it's not necessarily age that is the biggest
