Spanish Flu killed between 20 and 50 MILLION! Covid is only at 760,000. These scientists don't know what they're talking about!

Captain_Scar, known and renowned epidemiologist.

Yes, cause you have to be a known and renowned epidemiologist to know that 50,000,000 is a whole lot bigger than 760,000

Answer me this: Has covid 19 been contained yet or is it still active around the world, meaning that the death toll could will still increase, potentially dramatically?

In 1918:
1. No antibiotics ( or hydro chloroquine if that’s someone’s thing lol )
2. No ICUs with fancy equipment like ventilators
3. Just simple information about masks, social distancing, and hand hand washing wasn’t available
4. No testing or tracing
If we get to anywhere near millions dead, shame on us. We would (will?) be much stupider than Scar thinks that article is. There’s more differences but the bottom line is we have more knowledge now and we should use it.

Didn't say that isn't a thing, but 49 million is a long ways to go XD

*20-50 million first of all. You're taking the highest possible estimate.

I believe the epidemiologists and scientists when they say that that if treated insufficiently, covid could have the potential to have 1918 level mortality rates.

Well I wasn't going to do that originally, but when I actually read the article (stupid btw) it just said 50 million. So yeah.
Oh, and btw, the population was a lot lower back then. 1.9 billion, versus 7.5 billion today. Soooo, if we adjust the deaths to today's population, we get approximately (drumroll please)...

75 MILLION TO 185 MILLION

Hmm, we got a long way to go. At this rate we'll have to take decades upon decades to get there.

We'll see.

Regardless, it's retarded to compare Covid to Spanish Flu

Tell that to the epidemiologists, who clearly know less than you.

They're claiming it IS

If you read the original study, the part where covid is at least as deadly as the 1918 pandemic is when they compared mortality at the beginning of covid to the peak of the 1918 pandemic and found that they were as deadly. The part where they say there is potential is whether the absolute mortality of covid after the virus is over will be comparable to the 1918 pandemic.

Uhh, did you not read the numbers? Or did you never learn that millions are bigger than thousands.

How many times do I have to tell you that epidemiologists know more about disease mortality than you do. No one is saying it will be as deadly as the Spanish flu, just that it has the potential to.

Oh it'll have to do a whooooolle lotta mutating if it ever wants to get close to Spanish Flu

I did read it. And if they wanted to convey that it's the potential, why'd they make the headline what it is?

The study didn't but NBC did. It's probably just an embellishment.

Hmm, so it IS stupid?

If you're talking about whether coronavirus CURRENTLY is as bad as the 1918 pandemic then yes, but if you're talking about whether coronavirus has the potential of being the next 1918 pandemic, then absolutely not.

Yeah yeah yeah I've heard it, but they're idiots and if you agree with them you're in the same boat.
Now go talk to Nico! I need my entertainment!

And you are smarter, right,

You sound like a lazy fatass in dire need of attention, i am not your servant, i do not give yo entertainment willingly, the spanish flu was as deadly as covid because, A: there was almost no way to test people for it
B: THat was 1918 just remember
C: we have a lot more advanced stuff nowadays,

Yeah and a population 3.75 times as big. Adjust Spanish Flu deaths to our population and they go to the 75-185 million range.
Also it killed a whoooole lot of young people too.
Learn your math and history.

That was 1918, not 2020

No dip sherlock, that doesn't help you though

Wow, 1918 had the same medical tools and technology as 2020, never knew

Right, cause 100,000,000+ deaths just disappear like that XD
Can't believe there are people like you in the world but whatever

cant believe that there are idiots like you that belive we dont need a mask

What can I say? I mean really, it's not like you'll actually think it through logically so I mine as well keep it to myself.

XD, the spanish flu was in 1918, you could get a common cold and die in 1918

And how many people did that?

In reading what has already been posted i have to add this.
What proffesional idiot would try state that a disease that largely goes unnoticed in 90+% of those who become infected could possibly have the ability to produce what must be 150 to 200 times the death to even equal the ficticious 1918 numbers (to my knowledge actual 1918 death rates are only estimates but project 50 to 100 million died).

This is a Corona virus it dies in sunlight, your body creates vitamin d in sunlight which just so happens to do what in your body? If you wash your hands regularly and practice extra distance between yourself and others then you are very unlikely to catch this "virus". A virus which does not produce anything more than mild symptoms in the vast majority who show infection.

The veracity of this Covid 19 is vastly exagerated even without allowing for investigating how the total infection and death is arrived at and without taking into account all of the millions who in fact have not gotten Covid 19 but test positive because the common test cannot be that selective and a common cold could trigger a positive.

Also remember this, the W.H.O has changed the definition of what is a pandemic, it's now probably not what you thought a pandemic was. You dont even need a single case of any disease causing death to be able to label something a pandemic, how ridiculous. Please remember to investigate this and lock it in you minds for the next big pandemic will probably be even more severe and dramatic but even less real.

Yeah they're only estimates. I haven't seen ones as high as 100 million, but to be sure it was in the tens of millions.

Huh, I didn't know they changed the definition. And just so they could continue to call Covid a pandemic. It's all stupid and they're just trying to create more fear, which I assume was the point of this article.

"Huh, I didn't know they changed the definition."

Yes, i thought that should be dropped here for all that have eyes to read and maybe minds to think about the lies being put out because you wont get that in/from the MSM.

As to your other part about fear creation. No question about that.
There are many other little things the WHO has altered since the previous "pandemics" as to their definitions. Swine flu was not a pandemic or rather SWINE FLU WAS NOT A PANDEMIC!.

And remember to investigate Agenda 21, if your not already aware. Only the truly oblivious will tell you that this is not a sinister program. The worlds rulers are attempting to put forward more elements of this program whilst the world is under Covid lockdowns.

Also in the last days a new documentary was released called "shadowgate" really worth watching in relation to the present psyop going on in the world around Covid19. So many fools on all sides who have been manipulated who have no idea. Think about the tools who even after the Mueller report could not find any connection to the Trump campaign still insist (they still exist) that there is a connection and how the report didn't absolve him.
All these people are brainwashed by having eaten the selected and directed information which was organised by Ai algorithyms. They won't like to read what I just wrote but they should also seek out the documentary Shadowgate as it makes it al quite simple to understand using people who were a part of the community that created the code for the Ai.

Yeah I've read about Agenda 21. I've heard of "shadowgate" but haven't watched it yet. I might have seen stuff relating to it though.

Good, tell your friends hahaha.
Yes the Shadowgate is 80 minutes so not too hard to find time but I will watch again as I'm sure there was stuff I have missed. Good one.

Thanks

Oh I'm soooo smart for knowing that 50,000,000 is a lot bigger than 760,000.
That there is just the peak of intelligence isn't it.

He can't.

50,000,000 > 760,000

woohoo, I'm the smartest guy on the planet now aren't I

I love seeing the Imgflip libs trying to defend the deadliness of COVID.

I know, it just further convinces me of my own correctness XD

How long did Spanish Flu last?

A couple years. It was mostly in 1918, but it may have started a little before then but that's just speculation based on some evidence so it's not really clear. It ended around 1920 from what I'm reading here but it was definitely the worst in 1918.

Just another little bit of info, investigate the Rockefeller foundation and the spread of the Spanish flu.
I no you must only have so much time like everyone but if you seek the truth in these matters surrounding Covid you will see the same players back then are also responsible for what is going o n now.
Covid 19 is possibly the biggest scam ever perpetrated in an attempt to remove freedoms from every single person living on earth.

Hmmm, I've heard stuff like that, but I haven't heard of any involvement in the spread of Spanish Flu. I'll look into it, thanks.

No worries, i'm only directing you to where the water is. It's up to you to drink.
And in the above I mean to write, Covid 19 is possibly the biggest scam ever perpetrated in an attempt to permanently remove freedoms from every single person living on earth.

I'm almost certain they're talking about mortality rates. Covid is definitley closer to Spanish Flu's mortality rate than the previous 3 flu pandemics. Swine Flu's mortality was as little as 0.02%. The 2 forgotten pandemics: Asian Flu and Hong Kong Flu were 0.67% and 0.4% respectively. COVID is around 4%, that is much higher than the others and much closer to Spanish Flu's. If Swine Flu had infected EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the US, there would be less deaths than COVID has killed in the US while infecting only 1.7% of the population. You have to think about that too, COVID has not infected a massive amount of people like the Flu pandemics. 21 Million people have been infected compared to Spanish Flu's 500 Million and Swine Flu's 760 Million - 1.4 Billion. Swine Flu may have infected 67x times as many people as COVID and killed a THIRD as much making it possibly 200x less deadly than COVID. Let's say COVID were to infect as many as Spanish Flu did, 500 Million. With it's 4% mortality, it'd be 20 Million dead. COVID is a deadly virus, much more than Asian and Hong Kong Flu, and WELL WELL ABOVE Swine Flu. It is more comparable to Spanish Flu. They are polar opposites though on who it usually kills. Spanish Flu killed healthy people the most, COVID kills people over 65 or with underlying conditions most.

Also, don't say the word "only" when referring to deaths. 760,000 is more than just a number. Each one of those is somebody has who lost their life. Roughly 1 in 10,000 people worldwide. You can say Spanish Flu did kill a lot more because it definitely did, but don't use the word "only". I think that's disrespectful. The amount of people killed by COVID worldwide is higher per-capita than people in NYC who died from 9/11. That was about 1 in 25,000 people in NYC. We're not gonna say that only 3,000 people died of 9/11. That was more tragic, but any loss of life is tragic. If it's 2, don't say just 2. 760,000 may not look big when referring to the world, but it is a massive number. I doubt any of us have seen 760,000 people at the same time in one place. If we did, it'd be a sea of people... all of which have died.

Eh, you have to remember though that a lot of deaths that AREN'T Covid are being counted as such because of hospital incentives so that number certainly isn't that high. Additionally, I'm sure LOTS of people have had Covid but haven't been tested, so the actual mortality rate is much lower than the mortality rate given.

And yes, I agree. I didn't think I had put that in there so I apologize.
