Popular Delusions About Covid-19

The issue here is not whether someone may like or dislike the answer.
Maybe more likely what is being asked here is where you want to go with this.

But if you really want a response regarding the death toll, then ......

COVID 19 death toll in US, about 75 times as much as 9/11.
Globally, death toll about 375 times as much as 9/11.

Now for all the fuss about wearing ...[text shortened]... f their shoes at airports before boarding flights.
Even 2 decades after the fact.
What gives ?? 🤔

An estimated 36,120 people died in motor-vehicle traffic crashes in the United States last year, a drop of about 1.2 percent, according to new data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

How many times the deaths from 911 is that? Should we lower the speed limit to save lives?

That is a different number than 2 other posters on this Thread.
Are you sure?

I linked the information.
How sure do you need me to be?

Moronity.
That’s what gives.

And a total lack of realization. The conspiracy-minded cannot be convinced by facts, they huddle in group bubbles thinking their tinfoil hats and incel lifestyles make them interesting.

But the truth is two-fold:
- they’re actually quite tragic
- when it comes to Corona and vaccinations they are a dangerous liability; a sort of cancer in humanity.

I’m just quoting from the webpage I linked to.

I don’t give a monkey’s toss about the death rates of covid. It’s a non-issue. The cemeteries can cope.
It’s the people not dying which is the problem.

They’re both the same to me.
Both are very ill informed.

Tell ya what. Pop over here, I’ll drive you down to Liege and you can talk to the doctors who have to carry on working whilst infected with Corona, because otherwise the Belgian healthcare system will collapse.

Or. Do me a favour.
Find out how full your hospitals are. At which capacity are they running?
Ask your local council how long they can keep essential services running if they don’t slow the spread of the virus down.

Do that. Then come properly informed to the table.
Then we can talk and I’ll accept you’re not wearing a tinfoil hat.

The fukking issue, as I’ve stated multiple times, is keeping health services up and running.

All measures are geared towards that. Slow down the spread of the virus, so that the hospital system doesn’t collapse.

That is what it is all about.

If I could count I would have a proper job.

As I’ve stated multiple times.

However, the virus is more deadly than you and the tinfoil hat community seem to think it is. And it has longer lasting effects on survivors than many of you seem to register.

But the death rate is not interesting. And is in no way the driving force behind the measures being taken.
