Lysol has listed corona virus on it’s can for years.
Will we ever get to ..... quarantine the sick, protect the vulnerable, inform the public as fully as possible to let them make their own decisions about personal risk choice? This is what should’ve happened last year as early as two weeks to flatten the curve in three weeks to slow the spread.
Current “IFR” for “Sars-Cov-2” (COVID-19) in the US: 1.8%
IFR for worst influenza season in the last 10 years: ~0.17%
That is 10x for COVID-19.

1. 1918 USA Influenza Pandemic:
USA Population: 103,208,000
675,000 Spanish flu fatalities (est.) = 0.00654 fatalities per capita
2. 2020 USA COVID-19 Pandemic as of 04-17-2021:
USA Population: 331,002,651
580,612 COVID-19 fatalities = 0.00175 fatalities per capita
3. 1957-1958 USA Influenza Pandemic:
USA Population: 171,984,130
116,000 flu fatalities (est.) = 0.000675 fatalities per capita
4. 1968-1969 USA Influenza Pandemic:

never trust a government that opens its border and distributes thousands of disease carrying invaders across its country during a so called pandemic...
Covid has become both a virus as well as a IQ test.
People either fear it or roll their eyes.
Tragically way too many fear it.

Well said. The tragic part is many here feared it enough to go rush out and get experimental shots and by their nature now will fear the long/ mid term effects of the vaccine, but they of course will never admit it. I fully expect these MRNA shots to go the way of the Gulf War 1 and Swine flu shots.
Combining this with the extreme number of amplifications used on a PCR test to determine a positive, the number of deaths from COVID-19 is far fewer than the half billion that the United States is claiming.
The left went full Conan on us.
Most famous young person to contract covid was probably Barron Trump. He was over it in what, a day and a half?
The Spanish flu of 1918-1920 claimed between 17,000,000 to 100,000,000 lives.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_flu
The world population from 1918-1920 was approximately 1,900,000,000
https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/world-population-by-year/
The global death rate was therefored somewhere between 0.89% and 5.26%
100 x 17,000,000 / 1,900,000,000 = 0.89%
100 x 100,000,000 / 1,900,000,000 = 5.26%
As of April 2021 there have been 3,000,000 CCP virus deaths worldwide.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-56783878
As of April 2021 there were approximately 7,900,000,000 billion human beings on Earth.
https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/
The CCP virus death rate is therefore approximately 0.038%.
100 x 3,000,000 / 7,900,000,000 = 0.038%
The CCP virus death rate is therefore between 0.72% and 4.0% of the Spanish flu.
100 x 0.038% / 0.89% = 4.0%
100 x 0.038% / 5.26% = 0.72%
We shut down the entire planet for a “plague” that has a death rate 4% or less of the Spanish flu.
