You’re comparing past pandemics start to finish with one that’s in progress. With an Infection Fatality Rate (IFR) of 0.65%, it’s no smallpox, but it’s no joke either. If we allowed it to run wild without inoculating people with vaccines, we could expect a ballpark of 41 million deaths worldwide.

Or we give people a shot and they have a sore arm for a couple days and 41 million don’t die. Easy choice.

For me, it is an easy choice.

I will not take the vaccine, period.

41 million out of 7.8 billion is peanuts... If this were a virus as serious as the Spanish Flu over a billion would be dead by now. The Spanish flu occurred when the main mode of transportation was by boat. That’s why only 3% of the worlds population of 1.8 billion died.

We have airlines that travel to destinations in a matter of hours. Travel by trains and cars, etc. and we have only lost 0.03% of our population. This virus doesn’t kill young and healthy people... Out of 19,000 dead in Canada... 3 of them are under 19 years old... This virus is complete nonsense and it has proven that if an actual ‘deadly’ virus ever does occur, our leaders and medical professionals are too incompetent and unprepared to deal with a ‘real’ plague.

Where did you get 41 million? Please don’t say IHME or Neil Ferguson.

The vaccines are not proven to prevent people spreading the disease. It supposedly helps ramp down the symptoms.

This would help anyone over 70, where the IFR is dangerous.

The vaccines should be directed to the elderly, but only about 4% of the trials went to this age group. So GOOD LUCK.

You assume everything they tell us is absolute truth.

Must be nice to have a simple, uncluttered view in the midst of all the chaos.
