Our species has evolved to deal with deaths. Social isolation goes against human nature, it's a lot more harmful than any pandemic.

Single deaths not mass deaths. And it's social distancing not isolation. The whole lockdown nobody I know was isolated even if in quarantine.

BTW it's not social but physical distancing. You can be as social as you want, just not so much physical contacts.

Don't expect me to use your euphemisms. Even if you, personally, don't need real human contact.

Mass deaths aren't particularly more traumatizing than individual ones. You don't know these people anyway.
