There are worse things in the world that'll kill you than Covid.
It's a media circus. I'm done arguing over figures and statistics.
The whole 'pandemic' is a fucking sham.

5% of people in the US who are tested positive will die. One in 20. Shut the fuck up.

It is a big stretch to call the pandemic a sham, but its death toll (at 812,758 in the time of writing this) is currently lower than any of the following:
- Yearly death toll of smoking (
approx. 7 000 000 )
- Yearly death toll of alcohol (
approx. 3 000 000 )
- Yearly death toll of driving accidents (
approx. 1 350 000 )
Of course, the year has not yet ended, and Coronavirus will take more lives, might unfortunately double, I'm guessing. While I do understand media's burning desire to gain viewership by broadcasting about the virus because it's trendier than to talk about the "usual" causes of death people don't want to hear about, I don't think we should ignore this one.
In fact, why don't we try to avoid all of those death causes? That would be nice.
