And that is believing that Covid is the actual reason all 667,000. I am guessing it is very inaccurate what the real total is.

You're crazy. Just think if the common cold coronavirus killed 1 in 50 people. You would be absolutely insane to call that "pretty good odds". It would essentially end civilization.

Today I learned that having 49 of 50 people survive a disease means the end of civilization.

Neat.

The OP should read died "with" covid. As we've seen, because of the way reimbursements for covid work, anyone that has it when they die, or is reasonably presumed to have had it upon death, will be counted as a covid death. No one really knows the exact number, but it's nowhere close to what's being reported.

"667,000 deaths/328,000,000 citizens = .2% or 1 in 500"

(667,000 deaths/16) = 41687.5/328,000,000 citizens = 0.012709604% or 1 in 7900

Nature paper describes only 1 in 16 an actual covid death.

Where is 'medical errors'?

It's usually in the top 5.

If the common cold killed 1 in every 50 people it infected, which institutions do you believe would survive and thrive? Certainly not schools or colleges - or ANY gathering of people anywhere ever.

At the very least, life as we know it would be drastically revised to the negative forever.

There is not a lot of good math or even comprehension in this thread.

And yet 1 in 6 us paratrooper died in d-day
1 in 17 died on Utah beach

And yet they kept charging…..

1918 N1H1 pandemic killed 675,000 Americans. 103,000,000 was the population so 1 in 156 died from Spanish Flu and life went on

How did the workd become so soft…..
