    Just for some context on the numbers....

    Car crash fatalities in the USA in 2019:
    38,800 total

    COVID fatalities in the USA in 2020
    176,474 and going up.

    Will almost definitely be at 200,000 Dead by end of September. Biggest tragedy of our lifetimes. Too bad the president is a moronic sociopath.

    • Another way to look at it: the CURRENT death rate equals about one 9/11 every three days.

    • But doesn’t common flu kill 500K Americans per year?NBQ00
    • half a million? fucking what? it tops out at an estimated 60k annually.face_melter
    • well, not annually, it has varied between 12k and 60k in the past 10 years.face_melter
    • think it may be estimated at around 500k globallykingsteven
    • no NBQfadein11
    • A commonly parroted conservative talking point is conflating worldwide and national numbers. Is it stupid or intentional, who knows.garbage
    • Things as stupid as what NBQ said are going unchecked in American media.garbage
    • And I'm including Facebook in that, because that's where most people get their moron on.garbage
    • That flu argument is so stupid whatever the numbers are. Because flu happens in addition to Covid, it's not either/or...it's both.BaskerviIle
    • The fucked art is that this didn’t have to be this bad. Failure of leadership.

    • I must have confused numbers somewhere. I thought it's 500k annually in the US. Worldwide millions.NBQ00
    • Nb context fails to consider total deaths that are excessive to regular medical deaths. And doesn't question the million forced I to unemployment and real effec
      ********
    • It's or actual deaths (think us tourism all be money to poor nations) and real numbers. I think a .4 % I crease is acceptable. But these little lockdowns
      ********
    • Are not acceptable nor basic liberty restrictions. And no this isnt the worst tragedy ever. It's actually not a big deal
      ********
    • Think of it this way. Media and chi a and no monkey see monkey do. Look out folks bad flu year for elderly. We are looking at a .4% increase. Stay safe. If that
      ********
    • Was the message. Would people really care accept those most susceptible. Or would u see what we do now of peoplike yea fuck it
      ********
    • evil intentions in high places...thanks dr.trumpneverscared
    • 50k to >250k for 'influenza like illnesses' (covid isn't the flu but coronaviruses fall under that category) and deathboy thinks thats a .4% increase. right-oh.kingsteven
    • Please be respectful. Deathy is more educated than most.face_melter
    • rationalising this as a % increase of deaths is nuts. it was a prediction of 2.2m deaths that put you in to lockdown and you didn't give a shit then either.kingsteven
    • Everyone would be back at work by now except that we’ve had idiots like deathboy arguing “this isn’t a big deal” since day one.
      ********
    • The real tragedy is that many of these America would still be alive if it weren’t for Trump and the swamp of goons who defend him at every turn.
      ********
    • deathy is so educated, he makes good jokes when the police pushes seniors and they start bleeding from the head... ohh soooo educated he is... his mentor mustneverscared
