    Some 40 to 70 thousand people in the US die every year from the flu. I think the big thing is most people don’t care until it affects them personally. It’s been weird seeing covid coverage be all, “THINK OF THE DEATHS” as if that meaningfully would change much

      1 million+ vs 70k… hard to compare COVID to flu

          you can’t say that in that provided any context to what you disagreeing with. I simply repeated numbers from other people a million plus people have died from covid flu number apparently doesn’t line up with reality but I didn’t research it before I responded

              A million COVID deaths isn’t a lie.
