Why does the media lie? Yes lie.

What is the lie? The lie is what they do not say, which is that persons of her age, with no underlying conditions, die every year from a severe URI acquired with the seasonal flu. The lie is they are trying to pretend ONLY with Cov-19 are younger people affected also (seasonal flu is a big baby killer), as if it never happens with seasonal flu - but it does. They are trying to make Cov-19 way more unique in terms of the human response than it is.
