I didn’t say it was hyperbole. Yes, it is an issue that should be dealt with, no doubt. But as I said, far, far more than lives are saved than lost through our medical system. Sharpen up!
Same with this virus. 80% show no signs of illness. Possible cure and vaccine is on it’s way soon. Yet, we are going to destroy the world economy?
My point was that there are hundreds or thousands of things that are more serious. Yet, we are not driving the world economy to a brink of collapse over them. Heck, since you don’t like the medical malpractice stat, how about obesity. Obesity kills over 300,000 people a year.
The preventable causes of deaths in the world reaches millions, yet we do not panic over them. This virus will never reach pandemic proportions and will soon fade into memory while hundreds of thousands will die for no reason other than we did nothing.
