stylizer..I have tracked this big time. I have done the math to a point where I feel 100% confident in it. Covid is real and is as deadly as they feared.
The UK as one of the better examples, experienced between 1.5 and 1.8% death rate in January and February. All of this, against the background of warnings and lock-downs and so on. If you are over the age of 60 or have morbidity issues, you have hidden like a rabbit being hunted by a fox. Less the internet and rapidly accessible information, the infection numbers and thus death numbers would have been 1919 like. A full 3% of society. Meaning in Canada, we would have by this time about 500,000 deaths (we are ~ 1/2 of the way of the 2 1/2 year total duration) ...we have 25,000. 1/20th. In fact, at times the death rate was closer to about 3.2-3.4%. And could have been in a nightmare scenario as high as 3.5-3.6%. At 3.6%, Canada could have lost 1.4 million people. We have ~ 5.7 million people older than 65 and those younger but with morbidity issues. This thing went at them at ~ 20%-22%. Luckily all the efforts meant that only about 100,000 of that high risk group got it. which should still leave us concerned, 5.6 million could still get it.
The internet prevented governments from hiding numbers, from lying and from having this thing be 20 times worse.
If the conspiracy theorist want something to focus in on..focus in on why the bleep the vaccine is dragging along and why are governments pushing delivery times back. If things goes any slower, a third wave will almost inevitably outpace the vaccination program.
