I would observe this: COVID-19 is now the leading cause of death in the U.S., and the toll continues to rise as cases, hospitalizations and fatalities surge across the country. The complete number may never be known, and on that I would agree with you, even after the pandemic ends, but already it is a staggering number of lives cut short. Fact is, researchers, know beyond a doubt that the number of COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. surpassed at least a quarter of a million people by November last year, and that moved into the leading cause by October this year, far surpassing even cancer and heart disease deaths. This number is supported by three lines of evidence, including death certificates. You would agree that it is much, much more than a flu and will be gone by Easter?
