A pandemic of the novel coronavirus has now killed over 200,000 people worldwide.

More than 2.89 million people across the globe have been diagnosed with COVID-19, the disease caused by the new respiratory virus, according to data compiled by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. The actual numbers are believed to be much higher due to testing shortages, many unreported cases and suspicions that some governments are hiding the scope of their nations' outbreaks.

Still posting fake alarmist figures as usual huh?
Tell me, how many died from heart disease alone in the US last year?
Hint: it was nearly 700,000.

‘That was a horribly and awkwardly worded couple of sentences ...’

the phrase ‘purple prose’ comes to mind...and yes, true enough...

All over the world, nations have put their populations on lockdowns. This doesn’t happen with seasonal flu. What do they know that you don’t?

Not really sure what you're getting at, the question doesn't address the point, and I can't really tell whether you're challenging what I said or not. If you are, please just confirm and word it in a way that makes sense. For example, if they know something I don't, as I think you are suggesting, how could I tell you what that is? SO the logic of your question is self contradictory.

Anyway - if you're challenging what I said I'm happy to answer, I just don't know what you're saying. Happy Sunday!

And ABC refuses to blame the WHO and china. Tomorrows headlines form ABC news over 200,001 dead world wide. If the WHO head was a conservative or leaning that way, he would have been strung up already and they woul dbe going after his demon seeds

And if you had Stage 4 Cancer, Diabetes, and Heart Disease (and also tested positive for COVID) then the "cause of death" was COVID.

if the covid kills you. of course.

I can have state four cancer that comprimises my visual ability and die of a fall from a window.

The cause of death is a fall from the window, not the cancer.

I can have stage four cancer and die because my respiratory system is compromised by the COVID. Ergo I died of Covid

Same with the flu.

So what's your point?

The rona is no more deadly than the flu. It just has a better public relations manager.

Its an election year, you see. And the Donald is getting very close to shutting the derp state down.

How come some people cant figure out what's really going on here?

They're still waiting for CNN to tell them.

Well said. 👍 This is a false flag event. Why are we all so ignorant and frail to fall for it? It's just the damn flu, for crying out loud.

If you did you will see that I was addressing cause of death, not lethality comparisons.

And I was addressing that the vast majority of people who die of the rona would have died just the same of the flu..

With my underlying point being that its just the flu, bro.

Over 50 MILLION. Then Stalin knocked off about that many more. Then ole Mao knocked off about 60-80 million of his Chinese peasants. Yup, Communism works, IF you have in mind to kill off the population!! AND, THAT IS EXACTLY THEIR GOAL of bringing the world population down from 7.8 billion to the 500 million the Georgia Guide Stones crap tells them is their goal. That or a nuke war.

“And there’s only what, 400,000 people in the world!!”

For the record there are 7.8 billion peeps in the world.
