[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 4568708, member: 8481"] People are freaking out over the number of deaths of COVID-19. Yes, it is a big number. But I believe that most people are concerned about the number of deaths, not that it's from a never before seen pathogen. While 150,000 deaths is tragic, it's a drop in the bucket compared to the millions that die in the US from other causes. When people see 150,000 deaths, they freak out. But when they see that 800,000 die of cardiovascular disease each year, and 600,000 die of cancer, it puts a different perspective on that 150,000. I'm comparing apples to apples. I'm comparing deaths from different deseases. [/QUOTE]
