Strange how people die no matter who is president isn't it? It's as if death is a fact of life or something.

Are you saying that COVID didn't disappear.

Are you conceding that this is not true?,

"One day — like a miracle — it will disappear. And from our shores, we — you know, it could get worse before it gets better. It could maybe go away. We’ll see what happens. Nobody really knows." ~ trump

"…when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done." ~ trump

The poorly attended transition meeting in 2016 concluded with recommendation for the incoming admin to conduct pandemic simulations. Three years later, no progress had been made. PPE rotted in warehouses.

Some might recall, Trump went through 5 Secretaries HHS between 2017-18, before Azar.

Some might recall Jared Kushner in April, referred to the national stockpile of medical supplies as our stockpile and not one belonging to states. Some might recall, it was the Fed that put states and FEMA into a global competition with each other for critical medical supplies and in the process, bid up values.

Yet somehow more people die than they should with leaders like Hitler, Stalin and Trump.

500,000 fatties and oldies croaking is not a huge issue for society.

It would be if it were the young and healthy dying.

2-14 days between infection and symptoms.

How many people were infected by others who had no symptoms or were pre- symptomatic?

The lapse period between onset of symptoms and death is 2-8 weeks.

CDC warned of COVID- related fatalities exploding in January, following the preceding 7 week holiday period where friends and family typically gather.

While some chose to skip traditional holiday gatherings, some ignore recommendations and COVID spread.

Actually I'm quite sure how. He ran against a man who screwed up the pandemic response.

I've been ignoring and ignoring and ignoring and somehow Covid cannot spread to me

The average lifespan lost was ten years.

Some people care for their parents and grandparents. I'm sorry you have the fascist idea that people exist for the benefit of the state.
