There never were going to be millions of deaths, the bureaucrats were quoting the worst case scenario, go ahead and believe what you want. Just like I shouldnt be living where I live now because the oceans were supposed to recede or expand, or something so I couldnt be living here. But at least that lie didnt leave twenty two million unemployed.
As long as the quarantines are in place, we'll never reach the worst case scenario. The high projections were always based on no actions being taken. Once actions were in place, the projections could be revised downward.
