If you counted flu/pneumonia deaths the way you count COVID deaths. Died *with *flu/pneumonia, how many fucking flu/pneumonia deaths do you think there would be? We don't count flu/pneumonia deaths the same way we count COVID deaths. So how can we definitively say that COVID-19 is 10x or more worse than the flu?
I did some number crunching with the CDC data as well and dropped some knowledge on some leftists calling for UBI to protect us from the COVID. Did you know that even in America the land of obese fat fucks, only 0.0199% of people under 65 in America died with COVID? Meanwhile 0.2625% of them die from all causes since Feb 1st. Even 55-64 year olds, on the precipice of retirement, only 0.0786% of them died with COVID. 0.8521% of them have died from all causes since Feb 1st anyways. People with bad health fucking die before they even retire. An aunt of mine with diabetes and who was obese died at like 53-54 of a heart attack. It wouldn't shock me at all if my weird eccentric 62 year old uncle died tomorrow. He had a stroke last year. I would hope that he doesn't die. But it wouldn't surprise me if he did.
Died with COVID is literally only just over 9.9% of all-cause mortality in the United States. We torpedo'd our economy for a possible 10% excess of mortality? And even then when the dust settles, all-cause mortality might not even end up being 10% higher. Because a lot of the people who are dying from COVID were going to end up dying from heart disease, stroke, diabetes, cancer, etc. anyways. There's evidence that COVID is actually poaching fatalities from other diseases like Russell Westbrook poaches rebounds from his own team mates.
2,777,572 Americans died from Feb 1st to Dec 12th according to the CDC. 276,061 died with COVID according to the CDC. That's 9.9% of all deaths. The Fed inflated the US monetary supply by like 35% over a virus that is linked to only 10% of the deaths? lmao.
There are over 200 countries in the world. And the country on the top of the COVID leaderboard per capita wise is Belgium with 0.1621% of their population dying with COVID. This is not an apocalyptic virus. It's a bad flu. If you are old and immuno-compromised and content with not having a life, stay home. If you are a pussy and content with not having a life, stay home. The rest of us should be allowed to live our lives. I just came back from the grocery store and I have more face mask acne. I have an old acne scar that has been there for months near my chin. And these stupid face masks do nothing. But I can be kicked out of the grocery store and fined $880 if I don't wear one. It's fucked.
Even when someone is getting a cheque from the government, I don't understand how they can tolerate 9+ months of house arrest. I want my life back. And I am one of the biggest introverts that I know. But apparently I'm not the most introverted person anymore in a COVID world. As an introvert, I feel drained by too much social interaction. But too little in-person social interaction is giving me cabin fever. I guess staying home is novel to extroverts and so it's still fresh to them.
