It was a pandemic as it started in China and very quickly spread across the globe. It just wasn’t a very deadly pandemic as the vast majority recover. Not sure it can be called a pandemic anymore as not much more spreading it can do.
ya a pandemic of phycological manipulation .................. crap is beyond far from truly existing ............. but aye yal go ahead and ''trust'' what yal ''government and leader'' spew to the simple minded masses .......
It has killed more citizens than what we lost during whole duration WW1 in 10 months.
Not true. As many as 130,000 deaths were falsely attributed to covid when in fact they died of something else. It was a HUGE mistake to pay " bounties" to hospitals.
Average age of reported deaths= 78
Average life expectancy under normal conditions= 72
They like to ignore that whole" bounty " for reported covid death thing......but, unfortunately it's just another example of big medicine taking advantage of people under the guise of " good medicine".
I vacillate between believing it's way overblown to being shocked when I see relatively young, strong, vital men and women die or are permanently affected as a result of contracting the virus. I neither totally disregard the gravity nor do I believe it (the pandemic) is as bad as we're sometimes told.
My niece, who is a respiratory therapist in southern California and a very close friend who's son is an emergency room doctor in Wisconsin, both have said it's for real and is a grave danger to public health. One is a devout democrat and the other is an equally devout conservative republican.
The wife and I have cancelled our yearly trip to Florida for the dirt track Speedweeks events in lieu of a trip out west in early August in hopes this virus has either run it's course or there is a viable vaccine and/or treatment by late summer 2021. We're taking it seriously to the extent that we are going to expose ourselves as little as possible outside of our livelihood.
It has killed more citizens than what we lost during whole duration WW1 in 10 months.
estimated 20 to 50 million worldwide and estimated 675,000 deaths in U.S. from 1918 Spanish flu. The good news is common influenza deaths in the U.S. is down 98% from 75,000. Looks like the common flu has been eradicated.........Last fact.... 40% of deaths occurred in 5 states that reintroduced covid 19 patience's back to nursing homes. BTW the Spanish flu was over in 10 months.
