Even just preventing young people from killing themselves / eachother ( by not having them in public schools ) is a huge win, keeping people from driving is another huge win. Auto accidents kill 100,000s per year and any reduction in driving drives those numbers down. And then there's influenza - many of the public health measures taken against covid were ineffective against covid, but *effective* against influenza. Influenza can be a major killer, though roughly an order of magnitude less than covid.
There are important discussions worth having, post-covid, in terms of reducing the impact of both public school and driving, long term, as well as eradicating influenza.
