Some of the Maths for COVID

Are insane, I bet if I slipped and fell while washing my hands to prevent Corona and was hospitalized they would count me as a COVID statistic. I get it’s a nasty disease but media spin of this is the worst disease of all

"Fake News" was coined by others to describe all the Russian propaganda on Facebook and Twitter used to get Trump elected.

Stat- 425,000 covid infected out of 300 million, that's 299.5 milliion that are virus free. If you want in percentage it's .0001 Don't know why politicians and the midia don't report this. They love stats.

If you think it makes sense to assume everyone that hasn't been tested is virus-free, I've got a bridge in Brooklyn for sale.
Real cheap. Nobody will give you a better price.

Why are Brooklyn bridges always cheap? Must be something I’m missing.

Explain that to the 14,000 families that have lost a loved one.

Explain that to the loved ones of the 8,000 that die every DAY in this country from all causes.
To diminish their loss to the exclusion of only focusing on COVID deaths is disgusting and heartless.
Truly, truly disgusting. Repulsive. You think you are scoring “sick internet burn” points with “cute” GIFs, but it just reveals how shallow and empty your heart is.

It's all about narrative and the hope that people are really stupid.....and apparently they are.
I've been looking at that math all week. We could actually do this EVERY year for the flu and have way higher numbers to justify it.
40% legit deadly virus
60% political
"CDC estimates that the burden of illness during the 2018–2019 season included an estimated 35.5 million people getting sick with influenza, 16.5 million people going to a health care provider for their illness, 490,600 hospitalizations, and 34,200 deaths from influenza."
Link:
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/2018-2019.html
And we HAVE A VACCINE for it. That proves my point even further.
