Nah. It's fatal about 2% of the time.

Got receipts? Cuz you're wrong.


I just went to the fakest "news" site I could find, and even those Lefties have it at 1.6%/ (Way too high!)


Show us the proof man.

You switched out the total population, with the cases.


That's not perspective, that's bias.

Death rate is deaths divided by cases not population.


Go back to your statistics class.

Show us the proof man.

The bottom line is 650,000 people are DEAD and the people who do not get vaccinated are going to kill more.

As more people get infected the same percentage will die. They are statistics which move together. Go back to you statistics class.

Nope, that's your emotions/media brainwash getting the better of you.

FACTS!


COVID-19 kills people. The vaccines are safe and effective.


Your angry, emotional responses do not change the facts.

What is the population of the United States of America, circa August 2021? Answer: 332,655,522


How many people in the United States have died of COVID-19 (ostensibly), circa August 2021? Answer: 666,219


666,219 is what percent of 332,655,522? Answer: 0.20027294180915%


Therefore, the COVID mortality rate in the United States - during the dreaded Delta Variant - is 0.20027294180915%


Is that worth shutting down an entire economy over? Traumatizing our kids with germ and carbon dioxide filled masks over? Artificially manipulating an election over?

No, I agree with you. Best to have some perspective on these matters...
Well sure, when you reduce 666,000 souls to a small percentage, it really doesn’t seem that bad anymore does it?

But I’m glad you agree with me that COVID is far worse than the flu.
