1 in 500 US Deaths attributable to COVID

CNN, so don't click the link unless you want to support them.

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

Other death odds

Heart disease, 1 in 6
Cancer, 1 in 7
Stroke, 1 in 28
Motor vehicle accidents, 1 in 88
Intentional self-harm, 1 in 112
Accidental poisoning and exposure to noxious substances, 1 in 130
Falls, 1 in 171
Car crashes, 1 in 303
Assault by firearm, 1 in 306
Pedestrian, 1 in 649
Motorcycle rider, 1 in 770
Accidental drowning, 1 in 1,123

You're comparing apples and oranges here. The chance of dying of Covid in any given year is not 1 in 500.

Those are odds for cause of death, not odds of death.

98% is pretty good odds. It's only killing fatties anyway.
