This has been confirmed by Dr. Birx and this is how every state is counting it. The 2019/2020 flu season is pretty much over and there’s only about 25k deaths. Yet, 2017/2018 had over 80k flu deaths. Maybe the flu wasn’t so bad this year.... ORRRR maybe a lot of those flu deaths are being counted as Covid. I find it hard to believe that there was a 70% difference.

Regardless, even if you truly believe that all 100k covid deaths are 100% strictly from Covid and nothing else. The updated death rate is 0.26% and it is most likely lower. It actually is a fact that half the deaths are from nursing homes. So the death rate is actually .13% (most likely lower) if you’re not in a nursing home. Or in other words... THE FLU. Do you not care about the Flu? Are you going to wear your mask for the rest of your life?
