Yes, people are dying, and that is tragic, but far more die from the common flu every year. In just 5 months, 55,000 in the US alone. We consider this "part of life." Nothing closes, no one shelters in place. WHY are we treating a disease with a flu-like CFR like the plague? — PolitiTweet.org

Here is the math I do not get. At the 72 day mark, H1N1 had infected 1 million Americans. COVID-19 came to the US in December from Wuhan. We are at almost 120 days. That means we are at least 1-3 million cases, 90% untested. That makes CFR .1% or less. It's basically the flu. — PolitiTweet.org

For 80% that test positive, COVID-19 is either mild or asymptomatic - zero burden on hospitals. The flu already sends 650,000 a year to the hospital, why are we "overwhelmed" by 20,000 more - a 3% increase? We have had flu seasons worse than this and they go by unnoticed? — PolitiTweet.org
