--- "ah yes, the old 99.91% survivable. Tell that to the 1.1 million US dead, mostly grannies but a lot of moms and dads, too."

Ah yes, the old "tell it to" which is like unto the "you're gonna kill grandma" game.

I will quite clearly tell anyone who wants to have documentation that -- sit down for this -- people die. Every year. From the CDC itself for this last year:

"Data are for the U.S. - Number of deaths: 3,383,729 -- and --- Death rate: 1,027.0 deaths per 100,000 population.

Source for those who need it: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/deaths.htm

Moreover, given the announced "Life expectancy: 77.0 years," lots of "mostly grannies," as you argue, die. And of course, "grannies" are also mothers, so mothers die. And so on.

You write, "For someone who can’t work, or remember things, or walk without getting breathless, and whose income is reduced to disability payments, ‘survivable’ seems a rather dismissive cop-out, don’t you think?"

Got any stats to reference on your list of those who can't work because of long Covid? But you fail -- cop-out might be another way to describe it -- those who are on disability from ADEs from the mRNA still-experimental and still-EUA-authorized injections.

Here's a source for some of those: https://www.realnotrare.com/

Would you be "rather dismissive" of these?

Long covid is destroying careers, leaving economic distress in its wake Suffering from debilitating exhaustion and pain for months, patients find themselves on food stamps and Medicaid

want more? I find it hard to believe that predominately women would trade their salaries and perks for food stamps and eviction notices

Or are you being dismissive because it does affect predominately women?
