How has any of those things-and for the sake of this thread only, assuming your charges are true-harmed you objectively?
Only a selfish ideologue, bereft of morality and empathy would have to encapsulate every situation into "how does this effect me, personally" to consider it relevant, rather than consider the effect on society's well-being as a whole.
Consider trump's latest E.O. that forces meat processing employees back to work and shields the meat companies from liability should their workers become ill or die. In at least one state, Iowa, should workers refuse to come back to work, the governor has decreed them non-eligible for unemployment. In doing so the CDC suggests, but does not require the plants to test all their workers or to provide PPE. Only a morally bankrupt moron would consider these things good for society.
