Nice try pop. ..... Risk is a part of life. An overreaction like yours is causing your own furlough and financial difficulty. Do you enjoy the self destruction? :rolleyes:

On target with that one. Get woke, go broke as they say.

750,000 deaths per month, every month, in the US attributed to life in general.

This hysterical BS is easy to sell to people who have trouble with big numbers.

Please point to the influenza / coronavirus that has killed 100k plus people in 3 months in the US besides COVID19.

Pop, you do realize that these numbers are largely inflated due to labeling non proven covid deaths as such. Like the one in Colorado. Guy died of a 55 percent blood alcohol level but changed to covid. My aunt with lung cancer, covid. The list goes on and on. Stop with the nonsense. Wake up.

There are also many cases where Covid was not listed as the official cause of death when it probably was. In fact, experts suspect that covid deaths are undercounted rather than overcounted. An epidemiologist from Yale suspects totally deaths are likely 1.5x higher than the official number

This article is over a month old and in California is 100% not true. We count anyone with Covid who dies, as a Covid death. Doesn’t matter if they had stage four cancer, brain tumor or car crash. All are Covid deaths. From someone on the “front lines” dealing with this every day at work, I know the death count is OVERstated. I do not need some Yale study and any political pressure that may influence them, to tell me what I see and feel every day. My city had a huge amount of Covid cases but our monthly death totals before and after have remained unchanged. The only difference is the cause of deaths that use to be unclassified are always labeled Covid deaths if they test positive. The hospitals, ems, and fire departments have a huge financial incentive to call as many deaths “Covid” as possible. We get direct funding from the feds based off the Covid death counts. I can not speak for other parts of the county however and will not try.

Ok furlough fun time, false. I have many friends in medical profession and they are def not under counting like your yale garbage article "suspects". Back to your speculation hole. Don't need to spoil our return to normal life party.
