causing this shite to still be spread.
And? I have yet to hear a valid reason why this virus is magnitudes more dangerous or lethal than H1N1, swine flu, Ebola, SARS, etc to cause this massive overreaction.
(I think we all know what the reason is)

Nice common sense ya have there bud.

Solid Facebook research logic you’re working with there.

Has everyone in the world been tested? Until then we will not have an accurate stat base. So these threads are pointless. That goes for both sides of the argument.

Well its anywhere between 10-20x more deadly than H1N1 and spreads way more easily than ebola.
I'm not sure what you want for valid reasons. This pandemic has been an eyeopener on how much of the population can grasp statistics and some fairly simple math.

What is the point of this thread
There’s at least 10-20 threads a day making sure we all know that this is all a hoax and no one is sick and the government is doing this just to collapse the economy.
Meanwhile, this 247 writer and his wife and 5 year old is in on the hoax.

I never gave an opinion I just stated the total number of cases we are at today.

that is true.
But another 30% of the world's population already had the virus and lived life unaffected.

It is? With the small amount of testing done we know that?
And does anyone really trust these “Death by Covid” numbers? We all know how the game is played. Stats are only as valid as the numbers input into the system.

Personally I was of the thought that the percentage was showing we are doing pretty well in preventing the spread of something that is very contagious.

This is the the thing, when you dig yourself into a conspiracy based world view, you just reject anything that doesn't fit your worldview.
H1N1 had a .02% mortality rate. So, when he says 10x more deadly, the predicted mortality for Covid is only .2-.4%. That isn't some bizarre, extreme number.
This "how the game is played" BS is why we can't have reasonable discussions or nice things. You're acting like a guy proposing a .2% mortality rate is in on whatever conspiracy you think is going on.

Thousands of people die each day in this country.
Do you post facebook posts about them as well?
