That’s in a county of almost 1.4 billion people.

This DailyMail article uses fear-porn knowing that most people can’t understand large numbers. The article screams about 2,000+ dying of Covid, which sounds appalling, and then goes an to conflate that with 1M infected, which gives the reader the sense those 1M will soon be dead, which is false.

Of course most people can’t or won’t understand the math of large numbers that in a population of 1.4B, 2,000 dying is statistically zero. The Karens will rapidly ascend to their soapboxes and denounce you as heartless and wanting to kill grandma if you start applying math or logic to the situation.

The media’s click-bait focused reporting truly is appalling. Appauling to the point of criminal in its intent. They want panic.

I think this is an attempt to destabilize India.

And not just by our Deep State.

Agenda convenience. We always see the same percentage vs number game when discussing tax cuts too.
