As of today 8954746 folks have tested positive for Covid-19. With a world population of approximately 7.8 billion that means about one tenth of one percent of all of the people in the world have tested positive.

There have been a reported 467,468 deaths worldwide due to Covid-19. There were 60 million deaths of all causes projected worldwide in 2020. So even if every Covid death reported was directly due to Covid and many would not have died of the annual flu or another ailment that Covid-19 raised the total deaths so far by 7/10ths of one percent. That number would have died in three days worldwide without Covid as about 165,000 people die every day worldwide.

And for this we strangled the world's economy and the virus spread anyway even to the places that were supposed to be locked down.

The left has made working folks supplicants this year and used the events of 2020 to push an agenda that has failed everywhere it has been tried and yet most are still allowing it.

250k (most likely more, just took the low end figure from Johns Hopkins) people die every year in America due to medical error. So far medical error and covid19 would be within 3000 deaths of each other. Imagine a pandemic so mild it is competing with medical errors.

Umm, Trump was in favor of shut downs, and criticized the GA Governor for opening up too soon.

So yeah.

Talking about the numbers being low is a moot point as far as your argument goes, as the whole point of the shutdowns is to keep the numbers lower

Ra’ed for shite thread title and because I’m sick of the constant hand wringing you seem to be having. It’s similar to the LSU ‘fans’ that wanted O to fail so they could get preferred coach.
