Please - find just ONE doctor who knowing wrote COVID on a death certificate when he knew - in fact - it was not COVID. Find one. Just one.
The year-to-year death numbers are UP last month by - you guessed it - the same number of COVID deaths that have been reported. So if they didn't die of COVID - lockdown still needed - because it's some OTHER virus killing them.

Dr. Birx does weighs in on this very topic of the reliability of the CDC numbers, saying there is 'Nothing from the CDC that I can trust'.
Dr. Deborah Birx, a leading member of the White House task force combating the coronavirus, and the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reportedly clashed last week over the veracity of data the center collects regarding cases and deaths.
During what sources characterized as a "heated discussion," according to to the Washington Post, Birx expressed frustration with Dr. Robert Redfield that the CDC was using an outdated system to track data that might be inflating figures, such as the mortality rate, by as much as 25%. "There is nothing from the CDC that I can trust," Birx reportedly said.
The CDC has reported more than 1.3 million cases of the virus and nearly 79,000 deaths as of Sunday. That included more than 1,700 new cases from the day before. The Washington Post reported that Redfield agreed his agency was "in need of a digital upgrade."
The alleged spat between two of the nation's leading health officials comes as states continue to grapple with how to classify deaths amid the pandemic. The federal guidance to hospitals specified: “COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to the death.” President Trump has expressed skepticism regarding coronavirus numbers reported by states and the federal government.
The Director for the CDC apparently agrees that they have problems with their data processing as well.
These numbers are crap and not reliable or trustworthy. Case closed.
Yikes -yeah, what percent of the planet were you hoping for? 1918 killed like 3% - were you holding out for that? Maybe 3% is too low. WWII killed about 2% - guess that was well below the "World" part for you?
COVID already killed more Americans than Vietnam AND Korean wars combined - and lots of folks still feel like those events were Big Deals. Big enough to die for, in fact.
So basically families spending time together is bad?
I am sure dysfunctional families have more problems.
The 70 to 80% is only true if no vaccine is developed. Even if no vaccine is developed I’d rather get this next year than now. I expect better treatments.
Then I recommend you not leave your home or allow anyone in. That is totally within your control; others are asking for the ability to control their own lives if they feel the quarantine is more risky to their well-being than the disease. Your well-being is not more important than theirs. If you stay in your home you don’t have to worry about what they are doing, it really is that simple.

However, if you have to beat your child/wife over hardship that conceivable could have occurred under capitalism (instead of the draconian socialism you already accepted) then you are a weak-minded POS.
Of course if you want to kill yourself, by drugs or any other measure, that's your right as long as you don't violate the non-aggression principle.
Ever considered reading, and understanding the Constitution?
