@Scollurio You still manage to round up your statistics to bolster your point of view. If you're going to throw numbers around, put down the actual data and ranges. Your number is the high range as they can't guarantee that number.

"A 2017 study indicated a substantially higher mortality burden, at 290,000–650,000 influenza-associated deaths from respiratory causes alone."

Right now, we're at 169,986 deaths from COVID-19. At this pace, if we continue this course, we'll be at least 500,000 guarantee deaths by the end of the year. The difference between the flu and COVID-19. COVID-19 is MORE CONTIGUOUS than the flu. How dare look at this as a lesser of both evils. These people that have pre-existing conditions or people that might not be so lucky with this virus DESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIVE. We can rebuild and fix the economy. We cannot fix lives.

If there is one thing I'm seeing with this virus, it's exposing all the ignorant and selfish people in the world that don't care about others than themselves.
