re: Some people don't want to accept the data that shows the Covid impact hasn't been too bad

Originally, the data called for 2.2 million Americans to die if nothing was done, then it was pushed down to 240,000 with mitigation. Now the models are saying between 60,000-70,000 Americans will die of COVID-19 this year - which is right in line with a bad influenza outbreak.
But it is still a new way to die. Did the goal posts move? Absolutely. It’s still a football stadium of dead people that wouldn’t be dead otherwise.

Do you think we should shut down the economy every time a contagious disease spreads across the country?
Using that slippery slope, why do we allow many things we allow?
