Apparently this amount of death is okay, or we would be on lockdown during flu season. Guess we can use this as a benchmark of death allowed?

Flu deaths:
2014-2015`51,000
2015-2016 23,000
2016-2017 38,000

VS. Coronavirus
2020 15,000 and counting.

See, now that wasn't hard. We do put the economy over death or we would shut things down during flu season. Oh my. ha, ha, ha.

Yep, good old Wendy Bell. She did exactly what she should do. Get people to understand our threshold for death. We have one. The numbers are proof of it. Can't argue with good old numbers. Well done Ms. Bell!
