“This is not a bad problem. It’s a serious cold, and that’s it.”
Your “serious cold” is causing people in Italy to die at 16x the normal rate. Your “serious cold” finds what ever is wrong with you and kicks it into overdrive. Your “serious cold” is killing 3x as many as the flu does every day.
Right now, you’re blaming the gun - heart attack, renal failure, diabetes, intestinal issue, what ever - but it was CCP-19 that pulled the trigger.
Italy has 1/3 the respirators per capita we do.
Italy said over 50% of everyone who died from COVID were elderly AND had three serious, pre-existing, life threatening illnesses.
The flu kills 300,000 - 600,000 a normal season. COVID will go no where near that.
The US won’t have even 15,000 die of it.
Not only that, but COVID is causing a NEGATIVE DEATH RATE.
