A surprise guest was expected at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) held last week in Chicago. While most were expecting Taylor Swift or Beyonce to turn up, it was COVID-19 - an invisible enemy that tormented much of humanity in the last few years, that arrived at the DNC and infected multiple attendees.
There are growing fears that the DNC may have been a superspreader event, according to a report in the NY Post.
Several attendees took to social media to share their experiences and symptoms, suspecting they may have contracted the virus.
I agree with your point, but is it true that 5% died? I think that’s more than a rounding error. The best way to make your point is by being factual.
All the stats I presented were pulled from emotion. Actual death stats are around 1.2 million people in the US, 1/300th the population, or .33% (during the 2 year pandemic. Deaths to Covid 19 becoming endemic will grow). Stats were higher %-wise in less developed countries. These stats are easily available to you online, additionally I personally feel the value of any loss of life should never be attributable to a rounding error unless all other reasonable options are completely and intolerably exhausted.
