So yeah, the fact that only 6% of people died from exclusively covid definitely showcases more proof that the numbers have been inflated and the media has been fearmongering and spewing propaganda for their and the DNCs ends. However, take the 6% with a large grain of salt. most people have co-morbidities of some sort, especially when over 40. And we can assume that at least a third wouldnt have died if it werent for the complications caused by covid in tandem with their existing issues.
So,
YES: the numbers are inflated and the media is complicit.
NO: its not just 6% of all dead. that oversimplifies things.
MAGA Boys! Lets be the most informed, the party of reason.
The argument is that healthy people under 75 shouldn't have locked down. They want to memory hole the lockdown, as if unemployment is from people scared of "Trump covidtards not wearing masks and coughing"
this is also true. For the most part it follows the average life expectancy. only a few more than usual. but in the same age range.
40 is def not advanced age lol
mate, i get it. But its definitely in some cases that combination of covid and the co-morbidities that lead to death. Of course theres going to be overlap that we need to account for.
The Issue was that they were grouping all of them together. those that died moreso from their conditions as well as those that died from the combination of covid and their issues.
Mods: sticky please. We cant be running around saying something this serious that's only partially true.
Proof that most people over 40 have a co-morbidity ?
I'd say the real number is closer to 50-60k
People with underlying conditions die of the seasonal flu. Actually 30k-50k people die of the flu every year. Why the fuck are we still talking about covid?
The numbers are not the issue. The lying about the numbers is the issue.
