During the 1918 Flu Pandemic (a TRUE pandemic) the population of the U.S. was 118 million and 675,000 died from the 1918 flu. That is 1 person out of 189. Today the U.S. population is 328,000,000 and 220,000 have died from Covid (a number that is likely inflated). That is 1 person out of 1490. The 1918 flu was 8 times more deadly than Covid ... and that is assuming the stats are reliable and not over inflated.
Not saying it isn't real. Not saying it isn't serious. But, I am saying this outrageous level of panic is purely created and fueled by politics and greed.
